Value Addition Of Handloom Fabric Using Handicraft Skills

S. Karthik, C. Sushanth, R. Loganathan.




Abstract

The majority of India's rural population receives their income from one of the nation's most significant cottage industries: handlooms and handicrafts. Weaving with natural fibres like cotton, silk, and wool is a common hand looming practice in India. India's majority of villages rely on the handicraft and handloom industries either directly or indirectly for their livelihood. This industry proudly displays the timeless beauty that is a part of India's priceless cultural legacy. The objective of this work is to create new handloom curtain materials employing handicraft techniques. In this work, we created curtain material by block printing and using palm fibres for weft insertion in addition to other handicrafts like embroidery.

Key words: Cottage industries, weaving, handicraft and handloom, cultural legacy, handloom curtain, palm fibres, embroidery
