Dyeing & care
– The fabric is hand-dyed. For the first 1–2 washes: place the fabric in the washing machine at 30–40°C with a tablespoon of table salt in the drum to fix the color and reduce color bleeding.
– Wash before cutting and sewing, as the fabric may shrink on the first wash.
– A mild detergent, preferably wool or silk soap, on a gentle setting, is recommended.

Handmade: As the fabric is handcrafted, minor irregularities in weaving or printing can be expected; this is part of the fabric's charm and is not considered a defect.

Note: Colors may appear differently depending on screens, and dyeing methods may yield slightly different results with each dyeing process.

Note: The fabric is narrow (114 cm). For patterns that assume a width of 140–150 cm, up to 25–30% more length might be needed — depending on the pattern and size.
