katoenplantenThis blue cotton scarf comes directly from nature.
The cotton was picked, spun, dyed and woven in Thailand.
For the paint, the natural dye of the indigo plant was used.
Five to six dye baths were given the yarn before it was woven into this beautiful scarf.

In two days, the weaver made the fabric with care.
This hand-spun blue cotton scarf therefore has many hours of work in it.

The cotton still feels a bit stiff at first.
That’s because the yarn was washed in rice water beforehand.
In this way, the threads could be woven tightly and strongly.
It feels nice and falls nicely and only softens after every wash.
It is a scarf that you will enjoy for years to come.
