Khadi Silk Fabric 112cm wide - 80gsm Natural White

This Khadi Silk variant keeps the same artisanal handspun character as the wider cloth but in a 112 cm width that is practical for smaller projects and efficient pattern layouts. At roughly 80 gsm, the cloth sits in the lightweight category while retaining a refined hand and subtle luster from silk fibres. The surface texture shows the telltale, small irregularities of charkha-spun yarns that produce beautiful tonal effects when the fabric is dyed or printed.

The narrower width makes it easier to manage in studio cutting and sample making while still delivering an authentic handwoven look to finished garments. Designers use this width for blouses, scarves and layered garments where the Khadi irregularity complements handwork and traditional surface techniques. The natural white tone makes it a reliable canvas across dye systems.

This format is ideal for makers wanting the Khadi story without committing to the broad-width paneling required by wider bolts. It balances practicality with artisanal aesthetics.

Benefits

  • Delivers handcrafted authenticity in a more manageable width for many designers.
  • Natural white base produces vibrant, accurate colour results during dyeing or printing.
  • Lightweight drape and silk content create an elevated feel suitable for artisan garments.
  • The Khadi weave visually enhances surface decoration and printed motifs.
  • Practical for sampling, teaching, and low-volume production where material control matters.
  • Each metre adds artisan value through small, desirable weave variations.

Ideal Applications:

  • Scarves, blouses, dresses and lightweight tailored pieces that benefit from silk’s drape.
  • Ideal for studio workshops teaching khadi spinning/weaving or small-batch dyeing.
  • A thoughtful choice for eco-print and botanical immersion methods.
  • Useful as a lining material for garments requiring breathability and softness.
  • Great for limited-edition accessories and bespoke commissions.
  • Appropriate for home décor accents where a handwoven look is desired.
