Welcome to the world of "Made By Hand"!

Not all of us have had the privilege of experiencing, first-hand, the artisanal ways of doing things.

In these videos, we have tried to capture the true essence of working with hands, with make-shift machines, without using electricity, and without burning any fuels. This is how traditional craftspersons have been weaving fabric for centuries, with their entire life synchronized completely to nature.

Hope you enjoy these videos of the process of making hand-woven eco-friendly selvedge denim, crafted especially for the denim lovers, who care for the environment.

Cone To Hanks

Making Hanks Manually

Eco-friendly handwoven selvedge denim fabric is made from 100% cotton mill-spun yarn.

The yarn that we procure from spinning mills comes in the form of cones. The first step in our process of making handloom denim is to convert the yarn on cones to hanks.

The conversion of yarn from cones to hanks is done manually on a hand making machine. The hand-making machine is manually operated, as you can see in this video, and severa hands are made at one time. The cones – which serve as the source of yarn – can also be seen in this video.

The hanks of yarn made at this stage are used for further dyeing or reeling, as required.

Reels to Warp

Manual Warping

Warping is an intermediate stage, before the actual weaving of yarns can take place.

Warp to Fabric

Manual Weaving

Here you can enjoy the rhythmic weaving of eco-friendly selvedge denim on manually operated shuttle loom, without using electrical motor.

The “shuttle”, which carried the weft yarn, from one end to the other end, and back, is the key to forming the selvedge.

Unlike most of the handlooms used for plain weave, the handloom, used for weaving denim have four heald-wire frames, and four foot pedals, which result in the 3 Up 1 Down twill weave in denim fabric.

Made By Hand, With Love
