Description:

A unique handcrafted cloth woven in a black Kala cotton with a white Tangaliya dot in a cross shape. Tangaliya is a weaving technique that gives the effect of beadlike embroidery. It is created using threads twisted round the weft of the yarn.

This cloth would make beautiful skirts, dresses, tops and shirts. It would also be suitable for lightweight curtains.

  • 3.6oz, 124gsm.
  • 113cm wide.
  • 100% organic cotton.
  • GOTS certified.

  • Indian handlooms are sometimes susceptible to irregularities in the weave due to their handmade nature, this is all part of their charm and are not classed as flaws.
  • For the first couple of washes, place the fabric in the washing machine drum at 30 or 40 degrees with a handful of table salt. This will help fix the dye to prevent it running.
  • As all computer monitors show colours differently, we recommend ordering a sample of the cloth to check it is the right colour and weight for your project.

More about this cloth

This cloth is made with Kala cotton. Kala cotton is indigenous to Kutch in India and by default organic, as the farmers do not use any pesticides or synthetic fertilisers. It is a purely rain-fed crop that has a high tolerance for both disease and pests and requires minimal investment. The cotton has a beautiful rustic quality and we love it for it’s eco credentials and raw beauty.
