Kala Cotton: A brand new favorite in Sustainability
Kala Cotton is indigenous cotton from Kutch, Gujarat. It is one of the few genetically pure cotton species remaining in India. It grows in rainfall only and is fully organic due to have not used any pesticides or synthetic fertilizer in this process.
Bhujodi, situated at the south-east of Bhuj, is considered to be the textile center of Kutch, with most of the people engaged in textile handicraft production. The weavers are called Vankars. The Vankars are basically involved in weaving cloth or we can say that the prime occupation of the Vankars community of Bhujodi is cloth weaving.
Earlier Vankars community weaved shawls and other communities like Hairs were involved in the cultivating organic cotton (Kala cotton), which was used to produce cloth. The saree takes a minimum of 3 to 5 days for weaving. It started with Kala cotton. ( Source – Aahanaa Heritage foundation)
