Ikat Firle Indian Cotton

Olive green and tan soft ikat cotton.

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.

Suitable for shirts, tops, skirts and dresses. Also would be beautiful in the home for lightweight cushions or curtains.
