EACH OF OUR FIBERS AND HOW TO CARE FOR THEM
Lyocell
Lyocell represents a milestone in the development of environmentally sustainable textiles. Lyocell is a natural, man made fibre. Made with wood pulp from sustainable tree farms, lyocell textiles are created through the use of nanotechnology in a closed-loop process that recovers or decomposes all solvents and emissions. It is 100% biodegradable.
Made from the natural cellulose found in wood pulp. The fiber is economical in its use of energy and natural resources. Has natural breathability and 50% greater moisture absorption than cotton. Due to its moisture management, lyocell is also anti-bacterial. Soft, lightweight ,breathable, and comfortable. Lyocell has an extremely smooth, soft surface that drapes beautifully. Great for sensitive skin.
Washing Instructions

Hemp is one of the strongest and most durable organic fibers available today, has a tensile strength three times bigger than cotton.
Hemp has been farmed since the beginning of agriculture, and that added longevity makes it an excellent choice when looking for reliable garments. The cultivation of hemp for the purposes of creating fabric has a fairly low environmental impact.
Lyocell represents a milestone in the development of environmentally sustainable textiles. Lyocell is a natural, man made fibre.

Silk
Silk is a natural fiber produced by the silk moth Bombyx mori as a material for their nests and cocoons. This month eats mulberry leaves. Silkworms make cocoons out of one long strand of fiber, which means that a fully unraveled cocoon results in a single string of silk.
Made primarily of a protein called fibroin, silk is known for its shine and softness as a material. Silk is the strongest fabric made through natural processes.
Silk produces a shimmering optical effects due to the triangular prism-like structure of silk fibers. These prisms reflect light at various angles, which results in the subtle rainbow hue that silk has.
Our silk was handwoven by the Craft Resource Center, based in Kolkata, India.
The CRC is a guaranteed Fair Trade Organization. Is a service provider generating income for vulnerable crafts people and securing them with sustainable development and improving their quality of life.
Washing Instructions
- Cold Water Only - hand wash.
- Air dry in the shade or tumble dry with no heat.

Recycled Cotton
We work with The New Denim Project for all our recycled cotton, they collect and sort post-industrial waste from local garment factories ( Guatemala ), grounding these scraps back into fiber, to spin these once again into new yarns to weave and up-cycle into our 12oz twill.
The process is chemical-free, dye-free, and uses minimal water and energy.
The cottonseed and cotton lint, from their own leftover material from their up-cycling process, is passed on to coffee-growers, to use as compost to cultivate specialty coffee in the highlands of Guatemala. Up-cycling this waste back into production systems, making it a reusable and valuable resource, serving as food for new organisms.
Recycled cotton is very durable, easy to wash, breathable, soft and quick-drying.
Washing Instructions
- Cold Water Only - Machine delicate cycle or hand wash.
- Air dry in the shade or tumble dry with no heat. ( *If you use a dryer your garment will shrink )

Baby Alpaca
Its name refers to the hair growing in the lumbar part of the alpaca, the softest of the whole body. Alpaca wool is an exceptional fiber, suitable for sensitive skins, this is because it doesn’t contain lanolin, the main cause of irritation in wool. It also doesn’t capture or retain dust.Alpaca is soft , light and silky on the skin. The enchanting softness, is due to the fineness and the particularly smooth microscopic structure of its fibre.Baby alpaca is up to 7 times warmer than sheep's wool. The fibre, hollow and full of microscopic air pockets, acts as a true thermal regulator, adapting perfectly to both cold and mild temperatures. The ability to maintain the right warmth makes it suitable for all seasons and all temperatures.It doesn’t absorb moisture and repels water.
Washing Instructions
- Cold Water Only hand wash.
- Air dry in the shade in a flat surface.

- My simple solution for quickly drying sweaters is to lay them flat on an absorbent bath towel.
- The towel wicks up a lot of the moisture preventing the sweater from sitting in a pool of water.
- Steam if needed
