Before you purchase

* This item may be sold out in rare cases when ordered from the site because it is sold at the storefront at the same time. Please understand that we will contact you in the unlikely event that the item is not in stock after you place your order.
* Hand spun yarn is mainly made by women in the village using a highly efficient modern yarn wheel called an ambar charka. When the thread breaks, it is characteristic that neps are formed when it is spun by hand.
* Many of our hand-woven and hand-spun cloths are worked in village huts and may contain yarn or grass due to the environment in which they are made. Also, there may be some unevenness, yawning, and scuffing due to thread skipping, as well as some unavoidable stains. Please purchase with understanding as a characteristic of Indian cloth.
* Depending on the material, friction during wear may cause tugging or feathering. Please avoid excessive friction or pressure as it may cause damage to the fabric.
* For care, we recommend that you push-wash in cold water with neutral detergent at home and dry in the shade. When using a washing machine, please use a laundry net.
