Description
This denim style lightweight cotton is handwoven with its own unique green selvedge! Perfect for a stunning detail along seams, hems, ties and drawstrings. The chambray effect is synonymous with casual in all forms … so sew, sit back and enjoy!
This fabric is a perfect example of the community work it takes to create handwoven fabrics. At least a dozen different tasks happen even before a weaver sits at the loom – each one employing multiple people. Wearing and using handmade anything ups the sustainable impact of our choices exponentially. Thank you!
