This soft cotton bandana was sewn from kantha fabric and botanically dyed here in our workshop. It has three hemmed edges and one selvedge, and is block printed by hand with roadrunners and flowers.
Natural dyes are sometimes called living colors because they evolve and patina over time in ways unique to the personality of each plant or insect. In the first washes, your garment may release some fugitive color, so wash separately from your whites.
Expect some variation with block printed items, as each image is printed by hand. During the first wash, the black ink will soften and a small amount of the pigment will wash out.
To keep your botanically dyed, block printed garments in the best condition, wash them inside out in cold water in a pH-neutral detergent (such as Woolite Delicates or Arm & Hammer Sensitive Skin Free & Clear) and let them dry in the shade.
