feed of thread), finely controlled through an arrangement mechanism on the
loom. The resulting pattern of interstices provides strength to the fabric.

look. The smaller motifs decorate the borders and pallu, and have pomegranate
seeds, Saara seeds and temple spires as popular subjects.A special method of cutting warp ends of a
colour and re-tying them to different coloured warp ends, known as ‘muha-johra’

Saree.
