Pure Cotton Indigo Chambray Fabric by the yard | 54" Wide | 180 GSM
$13.00Sin IVA
Descripción
A refined pure cotton indigo chambray, woven to achieve a beautifully balanced 180 GSM that feels substantial yet fluid.
This fabric carries the quiet sophistication of classic chambray—breathable, comfortable, and effortlessly wearable—with the depth and character of true indigo dye.
The defining quality of this cloth is its chambray construction, where coloured warp yarns meet lighter weft yarns to create a subtle, luminous, heathered effect.
The natural indigo lends richness and depth, giving the fabric a living quality that will soften and evolve with wear and washing.
This is a versatile, garment-first textile, ideal for makers who want a fabric that is polished enough for contemporary design yet grounded in traditional craft.
