After China, India is the second-largest producer of cotton. Around 5.8 million farmers grow cotton with many millions more working within India’s cotton industry.
India has been producing cotton for textiles and various products for thousands of years and it is one of its most important exports.
It is a device used by weavers to weave fabric by interlacing warp and weft threads. A hand loom allows the weaver to create cloth faster and more evenly by providing tension on the warp threads. Hand looms range in complexity from simple, portable backstrap looms to complex, room-sized jacquard looms. Handloom fabric is typically made from natural fibers such as cotton, silk, and wool.Handloom products are timeless
Every aspect of handloom fabrics is created manually, by hand. Fibres are spun and woven in-house and no two fabrics are the same. Handloom fabrics reflect the artisan who has woven them, creating unique, timeless works of art.
TerraKlay is excited to be partnering with cooperatives in South India. Giving farmers who use rainfed agricultural methods, global connections and opportunities to sell their products.
TerraKlay's cotton handloom towels, including hand towels, bath towels, and kitchen towels, are made entirely from local materials, preserving traditional skills. Our collaborations benefit farmers' livelihoods and long-term agricultural practices, and we take pride in promoting ethical and fair business practices across our organization.
Our women artisans make each handloom towel with commitment and appreciation, knowing that they will be able to provide for their families and share their traditional craft with the rest of the world.
So, the next time you search the Internet for towels and decide to buy Turkish towels, keep in mind that there is a better option.

Use them as bathroom towels, beach or pool towels, picnic blankets. They are highly absorbent, light weight and absorbent. Honestly better than most Turkish towels in the market today.
