Material
Traditional black bandhani tie-dye handwoven merino woolen shawl, carrying the centuries-old artistry of Kutch, Gujarat. Bandhani is an ancient art in which it is tightly tied at multiple points with threads before dyeing, resulting in the distinctive dotted bandhej motifs that this craft is celebrated for. Crafted by skilled master artisans under the renowned Vankar Bhimji Kanji, it beautifully blends traditional charm with a contemporary feel. The fine handwoven texture and detailed craftsmanship make each piece truly unique. It adds a graceful touch to your everyday look or festive ensemble, while offering comforting warmth, making it a lovely choice for chilly days.
Note : This piece carries tiny knots, thread pulls or uneven lines not flaws but fingerprints. Every irregularity is a whisper from the hands that made it. It’s what happens when tradition weaves through time not machines. If you’re looking for perfection, this isn’t it. But if you’re looking for soul you’ve found it.

For those of you using a 44-inch wide fabric, this guide suggests measurements for a standard L Size. Think of this as your starting point. If you're working with different sizes or fabric widths, just adjust up or down accordingly. Hope this helps!
When it comes to how much fabric you'll need, it really depends on the design. We'd recommend having a chat with your designer or tailor before you order, just to be on the safe side.

What are the dimensions of your shawls?
Our shawls range from 2 to 2.5 metres in length. Width varies between 0.5 and 1 metre depending on the style. Exact dimensions are on each product page.
Can I use this as a head covering or scarf?
Yes. Our shawls work well as head coverings, neck scarves, or draped over the shoulder. The lighter ones double up nicely for travel and layering.
Will the colors bleed when I wash it?
We recommend a cold water hand wash for the first use. Some natural dyes may release slight color initially. that settles after the first wash. Always wash separately the first time.
Is this suitable as a gift?
Our shawls make thoughtful gifts. They are practical, beautiful, and carry the story of the craft behind them. We pack every order with care and a handwritten note.
How do I iron or press this?
Steam is the safest option for most shawls. If ironing, use the lowest heat with a cotton pressing cloth. Pashmina and embroidered shawls should never be pressed directly.
What is Bandhani?
Bandhani is a tie-dye craft from Gujarat and Rajasthan, with roots going back 5,000 years. Artisans use fingernails to pinch fabric into tiny points and tie each one with thread. A single saree can have over 10,000 ties.
How is Bandhani done?
The artisan lifts fabric with a fingernail, ties it tightly with thread at that point, and repeats thousands of times to create a pattern. The tied cloth is then dipped in dye baths. Untying reveals the pattern.
How do I know this is hand-tied and not digitally printed?
Hand-tied Bandhani shows subtle color gradients where dye seeps near the ties. The pattern is slightly imperfect and organic. Machine prints look uniform and flat in comparison.
Why does the pattern vary between pieces?
Every tie is placed by hand. The pressure, spacing, and dye absorption differ each time. Two Bandhani pieces from the same maker will share the style but differ in exact pattern placement.
How do I wash Bandhani products?
Wash separately in cold water the first time. some color release is normal. Use mild soap. Avoid bleach. Air dry in shade. Colors become more settled and vivid after the first wash.
What does Woolens feel like?
Woolens feel warm, springy, and insulating. Natural wool has a slight crimp you can feel . tiny waves in each fibre that trap air. Handwoven woolens have extra body and texture.
How do I wash Woolens products?
Hand wash in cold water with mild wool detergent. Do not twist or wring. Lay flat on a towel to dry. Dry cleaning is recommended for heavily embroidered woolens pieces.
Is Woolens suitable only for winter?
Primarily, yes. Woolens works best in cool and cold weather. Lighter woolens pieces can work in air-conditioned indoor settings. It's not suitable for peak summer use.
How do I store Woolens products in off-season?
Clean before storing. Fold and place in a breathable cotton bag. Add neem leaves or naphthalene to prevent moths. Store in a dry, dark cupboard. Check every few months.
Does Woolens pill or shed?
Some pilling is normal with wool and wool-blend fabrics in early use. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver. After the initial period, the surface stabilizes and pilling reduces.
