Before anything is cut or sewn, it all begins with good-quality yarn and fabric. Sourcing the right materials is the most important step in bringing any yarn, fabric, or product to life.
This service is designed to help creators, slow fashion brands, natural dyers, and others who require natural fabrics and yarns for their projects. From concept to completion, sourcing is made smarter, faster, and easier.
Yarn sourcing is the process of identifying and selecting the appropriate yarns to weave fabrics or products. It involves choosing yarns with the right fiber, yarn count, yarn texture, twist per inch (TPI), ply (single, 2-ply), color, and quality for your project.
We source natural and sustainable yarns for weaving, knitting, dyeing, and textile production. Our yarns are available in cones and are suitable for both hand and machine use. To maintain consistency and durability, we occasionally test our yarns at select labs to ensure they meet our stringent quality standards.
TPI quantifies the number of complete twists applied to the yarn within a one-inch segment during the spinning process. Proper twist binds fibers tightly by providing strength and durability while influencing yarn elasticity.
The verification of yarn thickness or fineness is commonly expressed using count systems such as Ne (number of 840-yard hanks per pound), Nm (number of meters per gram), or Tex (grams per 1,000 meters of yarn). So, this accurate yarn count ensures consistent fabric weight, texture, and appearance.
Moisture regain is the percentage of water a fiber absorbs from the air under standard conditions of temperature and humidity. Moisture content directly influences yarn weight, handling characteristics, and dye absorption.
To ensure the yarn’s cleanliness, we inspect contaminants such as dirt, seed fragments, spinning oils, and irregularities on the yarn surface.
Yarns are twisted either in an S or Z direction during spinning to hold the fibers together. The twist slants the same way as the middle part of the letters S and Z. Correct twist direction helps to balance yarns and fabric structure.
We ensure the yarn stays the same thickness, twist, and strength along its entire length. The yarns make fabric smoother by preventing weak spots that could break during weaving or knitting. This helps machines run smoothly without interruptions.
Fabric sourcing is choosing the best fabric to match your idea. It is one of the first and most important steps in making any textile product. The fabric you choose will shape the final product’s appearance, texture, and quality.
We specialize in sourcing natural and sustainable textiles. Our range includes organic cotton, linen, silk, wool, handwoven, and recycled fabrics such as recycled cotton and recycled silk.
We work closely with mills, weaving clusters, and artisan groups in India to support slow fashion values. We also collaborate with distributors in some countries to deliver fabrics quickly and easily.
Our fabrics are all undyed and take natural dyes beautifully. For small-batch production, we also provide low minimum order quantities (MOQs). If the fabric you require is not available on our website, we can source it or create a custom option to meet the particular requirements of your brand.
We source our textiles following ethical and environmental standards. So, every material is responsibly created and safe for people and the planet.
