The process of making a shawl is labor intensive. The 100% lightweight bamboo yarn is wound into skeins on a hand-powered machine, then hand-dyed with dyes imported from the US. The yarn is then warped onto a warping board. The shawl is then handwoven on a traditional backstrap loom, a process which often takes two full days of work. The bamboo yarn is made from sustainably-grown organic bamboo thread in China.

Product Care
Hand wash in cold water with mild soap such as hair or baby shampoo, lay flat or hang until dry. Iron on rayon setting as needed.

Use fabric softener and minimize agitation and heat. Agitation will eventually tangle the tassels.

The fabric has already been washed by hand and dried as above, in Guatemala.
