Happy International Women’s Day Y’all 💗 Wo Happy International Women’s Day Y’all 💗 Wow! We couldn’t do this without all you amazing ladies out there!

These organic cotton napkins designed by Chicago-based @roseroot.textiles sold out before we could even make them! They are inspired by vintage prints from the 1950’s, and the original print was linoleum cut. Get on the waitlist now and we’ll try to see if we can sneak making a handful more in just for you.

Did you know that India is the second largest prod Did you know that India is the second largest producer of textiles in the world? India’s most common textile crops are cotton, silk, and jute. The video above shows our Founder and CEO Theresa VanderMeer with longtime friend + current client partner Allyson Dykhuizen at a local fabric market in New Delhi. • • Cotton makes up 60% of India’s textile industry and is also the most common fiber we use here at WORK+SHELTER. In 2000, India’s government passed strong legal protections (including high tariffs) against importing fibers from outside of India in order to preserve the domestic weaving and milling industries. • • You can learn about all of the above and get a glimpse into India’s storied textile history in our most recent blog post, How India’s Textile History is Woven Into the Modern Fabric & Soft Goods Industry. ✨ Link in Bio ✨ • • • • • #workshelter #ethicalmanufacturer #fairtradefashion #textilehistory #indiantextileindustry #textilemarket
