Description
A wonderful blend of hemp and khadi cotton, handwoven with care by artisan weavers in India. Hemp adds strength, breathability, and natural antibacterial qualities, while khadi cotton contributes softness and a gentle hand. The result is a fabric that is both eco-conscious and deeply comfortable, ideal for warm-weather clothing, accessories, and creative projects that are meant to last.
Hemp is among the most sustainable crops in the world, requiring little water and no pesticides. In India, it is often collected wild from the roadside, then spun and woven by hand. Combined with khadi cotton, this fabric reflects a heritage of sustainability and resilience.

Why This Fabric
Strong, breathable, and antibacterial, hemp makes this fabric perfect for clothing, bags, home textiles, and outdoor wear. The khadi cotton softens its texture and adds drape, making it equally suited for garments that need comfort and flow. Together, they form a fabric that is durable, sustainable, and dye-friendly, taking natural dyes and botanical prints with great results.
