Handwoven Thai Shawls & Wraps

Mudmee is the Thai ikat technique: the weaver ties and dyes the threads in a pattern before weaving, so the design emerges from the dyed yarn itself. The soft, slightly blurred edges of a mudmee motif are the hallmark of true hand-tied ikat — impossible to fake with a print.

Hand-wash cool with a gentle soap, no bleach, and dry flat or draped in the shade. Wash naturally-dyed pieces separately, especially at first. A shawl treated this way holds its colour and drape for many years.

They are woven or dyed once you reserve them, by a single artisan, and each listing carries the lead time. Because each wrap is made individually, small variations in width, length and tone are natural and expected.
