Striped Lightweight Handwoven Cotton - Rose/Camellia

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 plaid design. Featuring a subtle textured hand and soft drape, this breezy cotton is perfect for a variety of warm weather makes like gathered dresses & tops, tiered skirts, button-ups, and loungewear, as well as quilted projects.
Stripes are 4mm wide and run parallel to the selvedge.

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.
