A Patched Length of Indigo Kaya: Hemp Mosquito Netting

This is a wonderful length of rustic, indigo dyed hemp cloth.  This is a panel from a kaya or mosquito netting, hence the very loose, open weave of the cloth; the color is a very warm blue-green that can leave you wondering, "is this blue, or is this green?" 

The color might vary depending on the ambient light conditions; the hemp yarns are wiry and have taken the dye in a slightly uneven fashion, which adds to the country appeal of this length.

There are two patches of light colored hemp cloth hand stitched to the piece; one is a nicely shaped rectangular patch, the other is a smaller, folded, shaggy patch.

A lovely length of old kaya.
