SASHIKO How do you choose your fabric for Sashiko? What types of materials are easy to stitch?

Thank you for watching!
I receive questions about fabrics very often. As I mentioned in this video, I don’t know enough about different types of fabrics and it's really hard to say what the best fabric is.
I tried my best to list up some tips to look for something easier to stitch and I hope it helps.
You may know better fabrics for Sashiko and your recommendations are welcome!
Most books I have recommend 'plain-weave materials' and some older books suggest to use Aizome Momen (cotton dyed with natural indigo).
Overall, what you want to look for is something easy to stitch with your own needle. Depending on the thickness of your needle, what you feel easy to stitch can be different.
