Kupa – Organic Cotton and Soft Baby Yak

Tibetans have access to some of the finest natural animal fibres in the world, yet cotton represents something exotic to them. It comes from distant, warmer regions and is often seen in beautiful textiles decorated with colourful floral patterns.

Picnics are a cherished tradition in Tibet. Nomads, farmers, students, monks and families spread large floral cotton cloths across the grass, fill them with delicious food and enjoy carefree days together—perhaps with a game of football followed by a nap among the flowers.

Kupa was created to capture this light-hearted and festive atmosphere. The yarn is an exclusive blend of organic cotton and soft baby yak.

The result is a fresh and comfortable yarn, particularly well suited to the transitional seasons. Kupa has a beautiful drape and an exceptionally soft, almost buttery feel. It is an ideal choice for lightweight sweaters, tops, shawls and accessories.
