This is a lightewr medium weight khadi subtle, even texture.

We use it for loose drifty summer dresses and blouses.

Great for slow stitch/ boro style handstitch projects. Be inspired by Dijanne’s Cevaal’s work and take one of her workshops.

Cloth is unbleached, and being produced in Bengal it is washed in a river before coming to us,  we wash again in cold water when we receive it and it is ready to send to you.

Hand made cloth is unique in small ways, little irregularities are part of its charm and not a fault.

If you are going to wash in hot water once you fabric is transformed into something– give it a hot wash before you start. We wash in cold water, heat can make it shrink more.

We work with a number of weavers across India and they each have a preferred loom width, hence the variation.
