Care: Hand wash or dry clean. Can also be machine washed alone on gentle cycle. These handmade garments are dyed with plant-based dyes. The thicker fabric in darker shades may still lose a little color at first but are fixed easily.
Dilute 2 cups of vinegar and two handfuls of salt in warm or cool water. Immerse the garment, soak for 1-2 hrs. and rinse in cold water, dry naturally. After one or two regular washes, the dye will be completely fixed and won’t wash out or fade. Eventually dark indigo garments become very supple and soft and the color may slowly lighten with wear. Nevertheless, they retain their beauty and durability for years.
