Handwoven by skilled artisans in Bengal, India, this fabric was crafted using indigenous weaves and techniques. This lightweight cotton is made from yarns dyed with azo-free reactive dyes and woven together on a handloom to create its unique mini plaid design. This fabric is naturally breathable and soft to the touch with a crisp, airy drape that’s perfect for billowy blouses, breezy button ups and voluminous gathered dresses & skirts. 

Read more about how these fabrics are made and India’s long-standing tradition of handwoven textiles over on our Resource page.

Due to the handwoven nature of this fabric, the grainline may be slightly askew and you may find colour variations, slubs, or ties within the yardage. We encourage you to embrace these irregularities as they are a natural part of handcrafted textiles.
