Weaving

This time we travelled to a town in Central India to get our hand woven, organic scarves, lovingly spun on hand looms by mostly women weavers. It is a labour intensive process and takes upto a day to make a scarf and upto 3 days to make a saree.

Flowers at the door is a traditional welcome.

Hand dyed silk yarn, hanging to dry.

Preparing the yarn for loom.

Hand looms

Sand bags/ counter weights to keep the yarn tight on the loom.
