Hand-spun and hand-woven Khadi apron (2 colors)
Product description
This hand-spun, hand-woven khadi apron features a rich texture. Its simple, natural design makes it suitable for a wide range of uses, from cooking and housework to gardening. Woven with chambray, the warp and weft threads are different colors, creating a subtle change in appearance with the unique depth of color of the chambray, giving it a simple yet sophisticated look.
Khadi is handwoven using yarn spun on a manual spinning wheel called a charkha. Made from natural fibres, this Khadi product is an eco-friendly weave. The hand-spinning process produces soft, twisted yarn, which gives the fabric a breathable and rich texture.
The neps (knots in the yarn) that are unique to hand-spun fabrics, the unevenness of the weave due to hand weaving, and the uneven color caused by changes in weather all give this fabric its unique character and warmth. The charm of chambray, created by the difference in color between the warp and weft threads, combined with the traditional handwork of Khadi, makes this a masterpiece that combines the beauty of natural materials with craftsmanship.
Material information
Khadi is handwoven using yarn spun on a manual spinning wheel called a charkha. Made from natural fibres, Khadi products are natural and eco-friendly. The hand-spinning process produces soft, twisted yarn, which gives the fabric a breathable texture and a rich feel. Neps (knots in the yarn) are a unique feature of hand-spun fabrics, as are unevenness in the weave due to hand weaving and colour variations caused by climate changes.
Precautions
Fabrics produced in India are cut and sewn by hand, so there may be slight variations in size even for the same product, and the pattern may be misaligned depending on the cutting location. Some products also use fabrics that emphasize texture, so there may be slight imperfections in the weave or pilling. Printed items are hand-printed by skilled artisans using screens or woodblocks, so color variations, unevenness, or fading may occur depending on the weather, temperature, humidity, and condition of the fabric. However, this is part of the unique texture that can only be achieved by hand printing. To ensure long-term use, please hand wash. Also, please avoid drying in a dryer, as this may damage or shrink the fabric.
