The Fabric Pocket Guide | Free PDF

I love fabric, but shopping for it online can get confusing very quickly.

Words like Chanderi, modal silk, tissue, Ajrakh or “pure cotton” may sound specific, but they do not always tell you what the fabric is actually made from.

I made The Fabric Pocket Guide to help you read fabric descriptions properly, understand what information may be missing and know what to ask before spending your money.

Inside the guide:

• A 30-second checklist for reading online fabric listings

• Simple explanations of common Indian fabric terms

• Five real fabric listings, broken down step by step

• A message you can copy and send to the seller

• A guide to Handloom Mark, Khadi Mark, Silk Mark and other textile claims

• A directory of thoughtful Indian fabric sources

• Price and buying-format notes for each source

• The Laundry Bible for cotton, khadi, linen, silk, Chanderi, Ajrakh and other fabrics

• What to do when colour bleeds

• A simple shrinkage test for fabric by the metre

• Two checklists you can save to your phone

Format:

• 15-page digital PDF

• Instant download

• Designed for reading on your phone

• Can also be printed at home

• Includes clickable supplier and reference links

This is a digital product. Nothing will be physically shipped.
