Handwoven pure cotton Dhabda Stole in Gamcha style

Description

Handwoven pure cotton stole in checkered Gamcha style in blue, green and purple colours with tassles.

This stole is apt for the sweltering summers, wrap it on your head or just drape it to keep away the sun as well as giving you a cool look.

Did you know that onions are used with wheat flour to starch yarns used for ‘dhabla’ or ‘dhablo’ weaving? This combination makes the brittle yarn strong enough for weaving.

A simple shawl that involves only weaving can take about two days to create and at least 5-6 shawls of the same model will be weaved each time, making a minimum weaving stint last for at least 10 to 12 days. Shawls with intricate designs can take months on end.
