In contract to Indonesian ikat, Mudmee cloth from Thailand makes use of resist-dyed weft (horizontally woven) yarns. Originally, special designs were reserved for nobility with simple patterns for everyday use. While Indonesian ikats tend to use fewer colors, modern mudmee can have quite a range of vibrant bright colors, especially when the cloth is intended for use by young women.
Traditional patterns often had strong horizontal or vertical bands, like the silk weaving shown below. Vibrant and complex-patterns are now created using modern looms, as was the case with the last two examples below.
