WILD OLIVES
DESCRIPTION
Wild olives is olive green cotton yarn woven in an alternating plain and herringbone weave technique over a natural cotton warp. What appears to be stripes is an alternation between weaves, creating depth and texture.
Our deadstock combed cotton will take any task you give it and come back for more. Perfectly suited to the realities of beach days (dries in a flash, sloughs off sand like a pro and is light enough to pull sarong-duty), travels (blanket, wrap or scarf, it all depends on how you fold it) or anything in-between. This fouta will age beautifully and quickly become your favorite every-day essential.

ABOUT YOUR FOUTA
All of our foutas are hand-woven using deadstock cotton and linen yarns that would otherwise end up being discarded. Repurposing natural fiber yarns is the first step in our journey toward sustainability and responsible sourcing.
