Measurements are taken flat, with the piece fully open. Handwoven pieces vary by roughly half an inch — that variation is a mark of the loom, not a defect.
Care
If hand washing, use cold water and a mild detergent.
Wash separately and do not soak for extended periods.
Turn the garment inside out before washing to protect the embroidery.
Do not bleach or use harsh chemicals.
Dry flat or hang in the shade, away from direct sunlight.
Iron on low heat from the reverse side. Do not iron directly over the embroidery.
Store folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging heavy embroidered garments for long periods.
Keep away from sharp accessories that may snag the delicate threadwork.
Shipping & returns
From the valley
Woven by hand, not by the hour
A single Kani stole can hold weeks of work on the loom. The pattern is built thread by thread with small wooden bobbins, following a coded script passed between weavers. Nothing about it is quick, and that is the point.
