We are KAL is a community of individuals who are all part of the creation of a product. We are farmers, spinners, weavers, nomads, designers, knitters and culture lovers who made it their goal to create meaningful products in harmony with nature and humanity.
We value clothes which can be worn over decades and neither loose their elegance nor function.
The evolution of raw materials into a final product is what we are excited about.
Our clothes reflect this idea – we choose to use natural fibers which still have all the good stuff in it. This way, a textile keeps its particular qualities and its natural texture.
We love the hand-making, therefore all of our fabric is hand-spun and hand-woven. We document what we are doing and how we are doing it, so you know exactly what your product means. We want to show the big picture to give the makers the appreciation they deserve.
We believe that business is an opportunity to affect real and positive change in a society.
Nomadic Fibers Yarn
This handspun yarn is the second step in making woolen fabric and a wonderful, loosely spun yarn for weaving, knitting or felting. Before it is spun it has been skirted - the removal of thorns and other dirt, then washed by hand and machine carded. It comes from the sheep of our team from Changthang.
The sheep live at an altitude between 4000m and 5000m, therefore the wool promises excellent warmth for the colder days. The handspinning assures a 100% pure and natural sheep wool. It is spun by our team of settled nomads close to the city of Leh, Ladakh. The wool is excellent for natural dyeing.
