How It's Made This elegant hand-woven silk scarf is from an artisan cooperative in Assam which employs indigenous Bodo women weavers. This silk is known as ahimsa or peace silk. Silkworm cocoons are collected only after the moths have emerged, unlike in the production of most commercial silks. This results in a greater degree of fiber purity, emphasizing the natural luster of the silk. Silk cloth is woven on manual bamboo looms. The artisan carefully strings threads vertically upon the loom. She then weaves horizontal interlacing threads in decorative patterns. |
