FAQs
About The Cotton Lane
Where is The Cotton Lane based?
The Cotton Lane is a small, heart-driven business based in Vancouver, Canada. Founded by Kyla, a mom of two little girls, what began as a one-mom shop has grown into a team of three incredible women. Together, we are the heartbeat of a community that shares our values. Learn more about our story click here.
Where are the products made?
The Cotton Lane started with Kyla making everything in her sewing room (which was actually an oversized linen closet in the hallway). As the Cotton Lane grew, we seredipitously partnered with the most amazing team in Türkiye who help us create our carefully crafted products.
