Himalaya

Himalaya Fabric is a ribbed fabric. It is made from bamboo and it therefore very hard-wearing. It is called Himalaya fabric as it has been manufactured in the Himalayas. Another form of Himalaya fabric is a fabric made from nettles. This fabric has been handmade in Nepal, in the same way that it has been for centuries. It is a very time consuming process, but the end result is an eco-friendly fabric that can be blended with other fibres such as hemp, linen, bamboo and wool.
