*Preorder* Tooley Ikat Indian Cotton
$42.00*Preorder now for an early November delivery*
A black and caramel large scale cotton ikat.
Suitable for dresses, tops, and shirts.
Ikat is a resist dyeing technique where the threads used for weaving are dyed beforehand. The Ikat threads are bound in a pattern so that the threads covered by the binding ‘resist’ the dye, creating a design. The more binding done before weaving, the more complicated the pattern.
Traditional techniques are used to make this wonderful rural cloth. Indian cloths are sometimes susceptible to irregularities in the weave, this is all part of their charm and are not classed as flaws.
