To carry indigo across a cloth this size is the hardest thing the craft asks. A throw needs far more dye than a scarf, and the vat has to stay strong and even through pass after pass, or the color breaks. When it holds, the result is this — a deep, unbroken blue with the faint movement of hand-dyed cloth running through it.

The cotton is handspun and handwoven in Sakon Nakhon, then dipped in living kram indigo, grown and fermented in the local way. Woven so the pattern reads on both faces, it works folded at the foot of a bed or thrown over a reading chair.

A piece this large takes weeks, dyed once you reserve it — which is why it is worth the wait. Allow 3–4 weeks before it ships.

Wash cold and on its own the first time; after that the indigo is set and only deepens with age.
