Starting from the count of the yarn, shade and dyeing, type of the weave, construction of the fabric, size of buta and borders has to be worked out perfectly.
This course gives a deep understanding about weaving on a handloom and traditional techniques which artisans teach us during weaving.
Experience of weaving on a handloom is completely different from what we weave on a sample loom. We also become aware of the size and dimension of a product when we get an hand on experience.
Its a different experience when we transfer a design from paper to loom, we come across different restrictions and possibilities.
My weaver friend"s name was Dinesh Bhai from the village Somasar, Surendranagar, Gujarat. A gem of a person, an experienced weaver who provided me with an amazing hospitality for 10 days at his place.
