WINDOW PANE "Khadi" Homespun Cotton from India

Window Pand Khadi CottonLight weight cotton, village woven in India. An almost sheer cotton that just seems to float. The "Window Pane" weave allows a semi-sheer to be very sturdy: groups of threads are beaten tightly while spaces between are beaten lightly, creating semi-sheer "panes".

"Khadi" cotton is homespun and woven in small villages in India.

Available in natural egg-shell off white, 36" wide.

Also available Naturally Hand dyed in "Super Eco Friendly Colours". These are unique dye-lots that are done as exhausts from other dye-work, making them "super-eco", and the Aurora Silk dyeworks "Super eco-friendly".
