A medium heavy handwoven fabric made from cotton. Hand dyed with natural indigo dye and patterned with ikat techniques.
This fabric is made with 3 colors dyed and woven in a zigzag wave pattern.
Indigo dyed fabric will wear similar to jeans. It will bleach from washing and wearing but stay beautiful.
This fabric is soft and smooth and will become softer over time after using and washing it.
It is made by Thai craftspeople who make fabrics in their homes. We work directly with these weavers and pay them a fair price, which helps them to continue their craft and produce sustainable products without the use of any machines. Buying this product will help support communities in Thailand.
Tip: real handwoven fabric can be recognized by looking at the edges. Handwoven fabrics have edges that are irregular and wavy as you can see in the picture.
This fabric is great for making cushions, clothes or bags. It is not difficult to work with but it is good to have a overlock (serger) machine as it can fray easily as it always the case with handwoven fabrics. Once locked and stitched it is strong.
The price of this product is per meter (1.1 yards). If you order more it will come as one continuous length.
The width of this fabric is 100 cm (39").
This is a fairly heavy weight fabric at 250 gr/m2
