In Andhra Pradesh, we work with artisans whose families have practiced the making of ikat yarns for generations. The yarns are bound and dyed in sections, so the design appears only as the weaving begins. Their patterns have edges that soften where the dyed and undyed yarns meet — a signature of this craft. A technique that’s both exacting and guided by the hand, giving each length of cloth a pattern that is never exactly repeated.

• Machine Wash at 30°C
• Use a mild detergent
• Tumble dry on low
• Do not bleach
• Use a warm iron with steam if needed
• Dry flat to maintain shape
• Note: The garment may exhibit patchy dyeing and marks as a result of the natural dyeing process. The print may naturally fade due to exposure to sunlight and washing. Dry crocking (the transfer of dye onto other fabrics and surfaces when dry) may also occur. Refrain from pairing this clothing item with light colors until any remaining color has been eliminated, as there might be some color transfer.
