Salu (variously transcribed in English as sālū, saloo, and archaically, shallee, shalloo, shella, and sallo) is a type of twill cloth, woven from cotton and dyed red, originally made in India. Prior to the introduction of modern industrial techniques, it was produced exclusively hand spun (khaddar) yarns with locally available dyes.
