The handloom cotton is a type of fabric that is woven using hand operated looms. Two sets of interlacing yarns, the warp (length) and weft (width), are woven on a mechanised loom operated by weavers. These looms do not use electricity. Human handling lends the fabrics a unique feel and renders the fabrics more value. The resultant fabric is softer, more durable and much more comfortable than machine-made fabrics. Handloom cotton is more breathable and thus feels lighter in summers and provides more insulation in winters. The dyeing process also becomes easier for handloom cotton as the colour penetration is substantially more. Hues are absorbed better thus look resplendent on handloom cotton.
The art of hand weaving is labour intensive and takes a longer time. But, the beauty it adds to the fabric is priceless. Choosing handloom cotton supports the rich weaving heritage of India and lets the weavers carry on the precious art-form to the future generations as well.
The zari threads add the golden shimmer to the fabric in a very subtle yet beautiful way.

Within her head and without, there was screaming. She knew not what she was doing and where she was. Who can blame her? When the world seems to be ending, there is little that makes sense. She is loud, unreasonable to the petty eye, she is real. Loud Sitara knows not when panic will attack her next, yet when it does, it tells her story to the world. She trusts and falls back. Are we worthy of the trust? Do we have her back?
This black made in heaven mul with zari detailing is just beautiful!
