Materials:

Natural indigo:

• Dyed in natural indigo 18 times to get this dark beautiful shade.

• We use the shibori technique; each piece is hand folded to create 12 moon shapes before going to the indigo vat. Therefore each piece will have small colour variations which also makes them unique.

Who’s making them and where

12 Moon Cycle Indigo Dyed Cotton Bandanna is made by The craftswomen make the bandannas are from Southwest China at the foot of the Himalayas, in the small traditional indigo workshops including myself, mostly are from local farms.  The heritage, skills, and passions for traditional crafts are a way of life.

Care as a face cover:

Wash after each use in minimum 60 degree celsius. Avoid contact with unwashed hands.  Re-pleat if necessary and iron. Store in a clean sealed bag ( included in packaging).

As a bandana:

Wash with cold water and a light detergent before line drying. Do not bleach. Because of the deep rich blue of this artisanal hand dyed indigo, this piece will naturally age like denim, adding character.
