Khadi cloth is a fabric that I am passionate about and am inspired by its history as a cloth and the way it started a revolution
Khadi means handspun and handwoven cloth. In 1918 Mahatma Gandhi started his movement for Khadi as a relief programme for the poor masses living in India's villages. Spinning and weaving was elevated to an ideology for self-reliance and self governance.
Thus beginning a revolution and what followed was the rise of People power and the exit of the British from India.
we work with a village of spinners and weavers who make this incredible cloth for us.
I hope that these journals will inspire you to create something that fills your heart and brings you joy. And who knows, maybe it might even compel you to start a revolution of you own.
Please note that due to the handwoven nature of this fabric the journal you are sent will not be exactly the same as the one photographed.
