Handwoven Cotton Graphic Ikat - Cream + Matcha
Handloomed by artisans in India using traditional thread resist-dyeing techniques, this ikat cotton is a textile worthy of your appreciation. This design features a vaguely botanical cream design on an opaque green background. Midweight, rustically textured, and with a crisp drape, we see this gorgeous cotton transformed into shirting applications, light trousers and shorts, and lightly structured dresses. Fully opaque, it does not require a lining.
Always pretreat fabric before sewing to remove chemical sizing from the manufacturing process. Pre-washing also gives you a better sense of the true drape and handfeel of a fabric. We recommend washing and drying fabric in the same way you intend to wash your finished garment. Be sure to separate brights and colours, as some dyes and prints may run the first few times you wash them.
It’s important to wash and dry cotton to remove any potential shrinkage down the road. Machine wash in warm water and tumble dry on medium or hot. More delicate cottons like voile, double gauze or embroidered cottons should be washed by hand or on the delicate cycle. Use a hot iron when pressing.
