Chambray Yarn-Dyed Fabric
Chambray is a plain-woven fabric made with a coloured yarn in the warp and a white yarn in the weft - creating a distinctive, lightweight fabric with a subtle colour-woven texture and chambray’s signature soft sheen. At RK Cotweaving, we produce yarn-dyed chambray from 110 GSM to 150 GSM in a range of classic and fashion-forward colours.

Chambray is distinct from denim in that it uses a plain weave rather than a twill - resulting in a much lighter, softer hand that drapes beautifully for apparel applications.
