Cotton Bandhani (Tie and Dyed) Summer Scarf

This gorgeous cotton bandhani fair trade scarf is handmade by women artisans in Western India who are skilled in very fine hand tie-dye (Bandhani). This fair trade cotton scarf is soft and vibrant, and the beautiful hand tie dye pattern gives it a natural textured effect in shades of navy and turquoise. Wear it as a lightweight scarf in the summer and spring time or accessorize your fall and winter outfits with this beautiful scarf. 

The ancient “Bandhani,” or Indian Tie Dye technique began around 5,000 years ago in the Indian states of Rajasthan and Gujarat. The area of fabric to be dyed is outlined lightly in the color of choice. Next, a thin sheet of clear plastic is placed on top. This plastic has pin-sized holes over the indicated area, and the color and pattern desired is transferred onto the fabric. By purchasing this scarf through Craft Montaz, you are supporting the long tradition of Bandhani scarf making as well as the local artists who make it. These scarves are unique and not mass produced, like most on the market.
