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 to create its timeless gingham design. This fabric is naturally breathable with an airy drape and textured hand that’s perfect for a variety of makes.

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.
