Care instructions

For naturally dyed garments, the first 2-3 washings are very importants and should be done with much care. While we pre-processed, washed and rinced our fabrics as much as possible before final production, some of the natural dye materials may still wash off during the first 1-2 washings. While it is highly unlikely that any dye material will stain another garment, it is highly advisable that you wash your garment by itself during the first washings, and before wearing. Turn garment inside out. Cold hand-wash with a mild detergent. Wash separately and remove promptly. Hang Dry your garments away from direct heat and sunlight to prolong their life span.
