• Moderate shrinkage may be expected with handloom cotton fabrics.
  

Product Care

• For longevity of colours and lustre, fewer washes are recommended.

About Ikat

Ikat is a Malay word which means ‘To tie’. Yarns are tied and resist-dyed in the pre-loom stage. The yarns in warp (along the length) or weft (along the width) or both are tied and dyed to form intricate designs. It’s one of the most sophisticated forms of weaving, requiring expertise and precision at each tying, dyeing, and weaving stage to produce intricate designs. Telia Rumal from Andhra, Patan Patola from Gujarat, and Bandha from Odisha are glorious examples of the rich indigenous traditions of hand-woven fabrics with resist-dyed yarns. Pochampally in Telangana is known for the beautiful designs in single ikat (either warp or weft is tie-dyed) and double ikat (Both warp and weft yarns are tie-dyed).
