The Craft ~

Crewel embroidery in Kashmir has been practised for over 400 years, often decorating royal garments and home furnishings . Unlike most embroidery crewel work uses fine wool threads embroidered onto cotton canvas called 'Dusooti' . The motifs often depict Kashmir's gardens : chinar leaves, tulips, vines and cypress trees. Artisans traditionally use an 'aari' hook (a fine crochet-like tool) instead of a regular needle, for speed and fluid curves. Crewel isn't just pretty, it's durable.  That's why it is often used in rugs, curtains and upholstery.

FILLER NOT INCLUDED !
