Edo era beloved stripes patterns, lovely (and handy!) reference chart by @nadeshicorin, showing from left to right top to bottom:
Yoroke jima (Wavy stripes) よろけ縞 : self explaining, lit. yoroke means “stagger”
Bôjima (Straight stripes) 棒縞 : thick vertical stripes equally spaced (bô means lit. rod or baton)
Misujitate (Three wiry stripes) 三筋立 : motif made of pin stripes going by three
Kintsû («Golden» stripes) 金通 : stripes made of two parallel lines (I am not sure of why it’s named this way, with the “gold” kanji. If you know please reach out ^^)
Katako mochi jima (I know this one under the name “parent and child stripes”) 片子待縞 : stripe motif pairing a thick line with a thiner one
Yatara jima (Random stripes) 矢鱈縞 : motif pairing “randomely” spaced stripes and/or stripes of many different colors
Soroban jima (Abacus stripes) 算盤縞 : stripes with diamond shapes (representing sorobandama/abacus beads)
Taki jima (Waterfall stripes) 滝縞 : mixed stripes motif were thick lines gradually gets thiner, like falling water
All of those patterns were considered super fashionable during Edo era, and are still heavily featured in modern kimono fashion. Here are for example some of my kimono, a soroban jima (abacus stripes) over same (shark skin pattern) komon kimono:
and a taki jima (waterfall stripes) kimono made of rustic tsumugi (pongee silk):
