The Exquisite Craftsmanship

Men all around the world wear Pashmina shawls and flaunt its pomp and show. Most of the times, it is the timeless and intricate Kani Pashmina shawl of Kashmir that they choose to wear. Whether due to the breathtaking mix of colours that Kani shawls exhibit, or the exquisite craftsmanship employed to handcraft this luxury wrap, it is Kani shalws that are handpicked by one and all.

What is Kani

'Kani' in the local language means 'small wooden sticks' or 'bobbins'. It is these sticks around which colourful threads are wound and woven together with the delicate fibres of pure Pashm. But the makers have to go through a step by step process.

Setting the code: Once the handloom is set, the taalim (design or a code according to which the shawl is to be woven), is handed over to the weaver who has to weave the shawl according to this code.

Introducing the Kanis: Next, a Pashmina shawl with warps and wefts is loaded on the loom, where the length of each weft thread is first wound around a Kani. The weaving starts by inserting this Kani weft over and under the adjacent warp.

Weaving with Kanis: All the colourful Kanis are arranged as per the code of the shawl. Each Kani is used one at a time in the shawl, and as soon as the design demands another colour, the two Kanis are joined together by interlocking.

For a three feet wide length, around 400 Kani sticks are to be used and depending upon the design and complexity of a Kani shawl, it takes the artisan 1 day to complete just one inch, and 3 to 36 months to complete the entire piece.

This labour intensive work can thus stretch upto years together and finally what we get is nothing less than a piece of marvel.
