Handloom
Handloom is human-guided.
Powerloom
Powerloom is machine-driven.
Khadi
Khadi is human from start to finish. Spun by hand, woven by heart
Powerloom Khadi vs Handspun Khadi
Not all Khadi is equal.
Handspun Khadi has life — uneven threads, soft movement, true comfort.
Powerloom Khadi imitates the look, but not the soul.
S Twist Thread
Also called the left-hand or reverse twist, it is formed by rotating the spindle in an anti-clockwise direction. Khadi is defined by its handspun S-twist yarn, using a charkha
Z Twist Thread
Also known as the right-hand twist, it is formed by rotating the spindle in a clockwise direction and is predominant in machine-spun yarn
The Magnifying Glass Test
Look closely. Handmade Khadi threads are irregular, breathing with tiny gaps.
Machine Khadi is too perfect — too tight to breathe.
The Beauty of Black Specks
See these tiny black dots?
They’re fragments of natural cotton seed — a mark of true handwoven purity.
Nature, not machine, decides their placement
