Cutwork is a
weaving technique practised in Uttar Pradesh
where the two thin layers of fabric are
woven together one above the other, and they
meet wherever the pattern is intended to
show up. After the weaving is complete,
workers manually use small scissors to snip
away the lower layer threads that are not
woven into the design. The result is a thin,
transparent fabric with subtle opaque
designs woven into it. |
