The colorful textile pieces can be full of delicate embroidery and have been stitched together in a unique blend. A way of using existing material instead of producing new. The blanket wear item has kantha top stitches made by hand by Indian artisans. Kantha is a traditional embroidery technique, and is characterized by the many rows of short, continuous stitches. This characteristic embroidery method has been used in India for hundreds of years.
