Are you a Garment or a Home furnishings manufacturer who is confused whether Ikat is a printing technique, or a weave or a name of a dyeing process? If yes, then do watch out this video for clarity. Hello, this is Tushar from Charu Creation Pvt Ltd, a fashion fabric company at Nehru Place, New Delhi.
So friends, Ikat is a dyeing technique used to pattern textiles that employs resist dyeing, a type of dyeing, on the yarns prior to dyeing and weaving the fabric. In simple words, yarns are first dyed and then woven into a cloth. In ikat the resist is formed by binding individual yarns or bundles of yarns with a tight wrapping applied in the desired pattern. The yarns are then dyed.
The bindings may then be altered to create a new pattern and the yarns could be dyed again with another colour. This process may be repeated multiple times to produce elaborate, multicolored patterns. When the dyeing is finished all the bindings are removed and the yarns are woven into cloth. In other resist-dyeing techniques such as tie-dye and batik the resist is applied to the woven cloth, whereas in ikat the resist is applied to the yarns before they are woven into cloth.
Because the surface design is created in the yarns rather than on the finished cloth, in ikat both fabric faces are patterned. A characteristic of ikat textiles is an apparent “blurriness” to the design. The blurriness is a result of the extreme difficulty the weaver has lining up the dyed yarns so that the pattern comes out perfectly in the finished cloth. The blurriness can be reduced by using finer yarns or by the skill of the craftsperson. Ikats with little blurriness, multiple colours and complicated patterns are more difficult to create and therefore often more expensive. Ikat is broadly categorized into 2 types: a) Single Ikat b) Double Ikat Single Ikat is further sub-categorized into 2 types: Warp Ikat and Weft Ikat.
In warp ikat it is only the warp yarns that are dyed using the ikat technique, the resist dyeing technique. The weft yarns are generally bleached or they are dyed a solid colour. The ikat pattern is clearly visible in the warp yarns wound onto the loom even before the weft is woven in. The majority of the Ikat available in the market is Warp Ikat. In weft ikat it is the weaving of weft yarn that carries the dyed patterns. The weft yarns are dyed using the ikat technique, the resist dyeing technique.Therefore, the pattern only appears as the weaving proceeds. Weft ikats are much slower to weave than warp ikat because the weft yarns must be carefully adjusted after each passing of the shuttle to maintain the clarity of the design.
Then comes Double Ikat. Double Ikat is a technique in which both warp and the weft are resist-dyed prior to weaving. Obviously it is the most difficult to make and the most expensive. Double ikat is only produced in three countries: India, Japan and Indonesia. The double ikat made in Patan, Gujarat in India is the most complicated. Called “patola,” it is made using fine silk yarns and many colours. It may be patterned with a small motif that is repeated many times across the length of a six-meter sari. Sometimes the Patan double ikat is pictorial with no repeats across its length. That is, each small design element in each colour was individually tied in the warp and weft yarns. It’s an extraordinary achievement in the textile arts. Pochampally Saree, a variety from a small village in Nalgonda district, Andhra Pradesh, India is another fine example of Double Ikat. Ikat fabric can be made with any textile fiber that takes well to dye. Common traditional ikat materials include cotton and silk.

Are you a Garment manufacturer who wishes to buy Kalamkari fabric for your Garment Collection? If yes, then do watch out this video in which I will tell you 3 important things regarding Kalamkari fabric which you should know before buying Kalamkari fabrics.
Hello, this is Tushar from Charu Creation Pvt Ltd, a fashion fabric company at Nehru Place, New Delhi. So friends, first of all, Kalamkari is a name of a Printing Process. Kalamkari can be done on any fabric.
Generally, it is done on cotton and Silk Second Point: Since ages, kalamkari printing has been either done by using hand blocks called the Machilipatnam style of Kalamkari or by free hand-painting called the SrikalahastiKalamkari. In the modern times, processes like Screen Printing, Rotary Printing, Digital Printing are used to produce pseudo Kalamkari Printed Fabrics.
So, do enquire before purchasing Kalamkari fabric whether they are hand printed, hand painted or mechanically printed Kalamkari fabrics. Third Point: As authentic Kalamkari fabric is made of natural dyes, it is common that the excess dye on the surface may bleed especially on darker colors. This is intrinsic with natural dyes and fixes with subsequent washing.
This is also the beauty of natural dyes that they evolve with the passage of time. To view our collection of Kalamkari Fabrics,
Are you a Garment manufacturer who is confused between the choice ofChambray Fabric and Denim Fabric for your garment collection? If yes, then do watch out this video till end.Â
Hello, this is Tushar from Charu Creation Pvt Ltd, a fashion fabric company at Nehru Place, New Delhi. So friends, both Chambray and Denim are made of cotton. In both the fabrics, dyed warp yarns generally of blue color and white weft yarns are used. But there are some differences. The first difference lies in the yarn count of the cotton used. The yarn count for denim ranges from English Cotton Count (Ne) 4.0 to English Cotton Count (Ne) 12.5 whereas Yarn count of chambray ranges from English Cotton Count (Ne) 12.5 to English Cotton Count (Ne) 60. Please remember, in the English Cotton Count Yarn count system, the larger the number the finer the yarn and vice versa.
 To state it in very simple terms; a heavier, coarser and thicker yarn is used to make Denim than Chambray. The second difference is use of different weaves. While Denim is constructed in Twill weave, Chambray is constructed in plain weave. As a result, the inner side of the denim fabric is lighter in color than the outer side. In case of Chambray, both sides of this fabric are of the same color. Because of these 2 differences, Chambray has a softer texture, softer touch than denim, is more breathable than Denim and therefore more suitable for making spring and summer tops, jumpsuits, and dresses. Chambray is also widely used for making Ties and Pocket Squares. Denim on the other hand is more rugged and durable.Â
Because of its heavier ruggedness and durability, Denim is used for making Jeans, Jackets, even bags and shoes. A fun fact, in early twentieth-century United States, many laborers wore denim pants and chambray shirts, which led to the term “blue collar jobs.” To view our collection of Chambray and Denim Fabrics, you may click the links below.
Do you remember the discotheques and the glamour of 1980s? Can you recollect the scenes where people wearing dresses made of shiny and metallic fabrics are glittering and sparkling because of the reflection of disco lights? Which fabric am I talking about? Yes, you are right. I am talking about Lurex. Hello, this is Tushar from Charu Creation Pvt Ltd, a fashion fabric company at Nehru Place, New Delhi. So what is Lurex? https://www.ijpamed.eu/
Lurex is the registered brand name of the Lurex Company, Ltd. for a type of yarn with a metallic appearance created in 1946. “Lurex” also refers to cloth created with the yarn. The Lurex yarn is made up of thin aluminum strips, wrapped around layers of plastic films. This wrap-up makes the yarn stronger and also helps in retaining the glitter of the metal. But long before the invention of Lurex, metallic materials were already mixed to give the fabrics shine and elegance. There are records, from the Middle Ages, of the use of gold cut in very small strips, molded and wrapped in silk or cotton.
This made the product expensive and took great craftsmanship which made it a symbol of wealth, power, and luxury. Since they were metallic strips, they came with their specific shortcomings. The ribbon-like cross-sectional weave of Gold and Silver had a cutting edge which left the fabric with a harsh, rough feel to it. Apart from gold, other metallic strips got tarnished and lost their shine with time. Moreover they were also inflexible and stiff. And this is where Lurex found its USP. Lurex is light weight, does not tarnish, and is strong enough to be used in power looms to make complex woven fabrics, making new metallic fabrics possible.
In comparison to the kind of metal-like yarns constructed before, lurex came out to be soft and easy to handle. Given its softness and construction, weaving lurex is easier while keeping its charm intact. It is available in different colors and effects. Furthermore, it is versatile in its application. Besides getting woven, it can also be knitted. From being super malleable, moldable to the body, and slight transparent, Lurex is also great for draping and pleating. Friends, we can serve you with a variety of Lurex Blend Fabrics ranging from Viscose lurex , Polyester lurex, Cotton lurex, silk lurex and many more blends of lurex fabrics in colors like golden, silver and copper.
All of these fabrics can be dyed according to your requirements. Friends, I want to acknowledge you for watching this video. I hope that samples made out of our fabric collection would help you to win orders from your respective buyers and strengthen your business in these challenging times.

Do you know that around 63 per cent of women struggle to find the right fit in retail clothing? Do you know that due to poor fit around 70 percent of the time the retail garments, garments which have been produced on mass scale, are either returned or rejected without even being worn once?
Besides loss of personal time and money, the problem of misfit in retail garments, garments produced on mass scale is leading to the dumping of clothes which in turn is having a disastrous effect on the environment. The textiles industry is the second biggest polluter after oil as about 3.8 billion pounds of clothing are being dumped annually. One of the major factors behind dumping of clothes is the problem of misfit. So what is the solution. The solution is – Mass customization instead of mass production. Factors like efficient manufacturing, digital inventory options and virtual customisation have led to the advent of a concept called mass customisation—the production of products that meet individual tastes with minimal waste. So now the important question is How is mass customisation done? The first and the most important thing in mass customisation is the 3-D Body Scanner. 3-D body scanner measures 110 body measurements in less than five seconds with an accuracy of 99.9 percent which makes things smooth for the consumer and also for the brand in creating an outfit that fits properly. Also, it saves a lot of time.
Next important thing is digital customization using 3-D Pattern Software. So this software allows the visualization of any garment pattern in 3 D, based on real fabric characteristics. Just imagine, you walk into a fabric store and you choose few fabrics. Now, this software would quickly turn your chosen fabrics into different virtual garments. Moreover, you would have the option of making changes to the virtual garments at the spot. You could change the collar, the sleeve or the neckline style the way you want. The next very interesting innovation is the 3D Virtual Try on. So with the help of 3D Virtual Try on, you can see yourself dressed in the virtual garments made by the 3D software using your body measurements provided by the 3 D scanners on any screen. It could be the screen of your mobile phone, your PC, TV, anything. Isn’t it amazing? So to sum up, mass customisation reduces the chances of returns, eliminates excess stock inventory and thereby leads to zero or no inventory.
