Chain stitch rugs are those which are confined to Kashmir and are famous for the hard work. These are unique hand embroidery done with care and caution.
A lot of hard work is the secret of this magnificent art work.These are rare rugs that originated in Kashmir as something confined to their culture and artifacts.
Chain stitch carpets are really wonderful varieties which have their own designs, patterns and colours entirely different from other rugs. Several materials are used for this purpose such as cotton, wool and silk threads.
The chain stitch rugs are natively known as Jalakdozi which refers to a special kind of stitching specialized in Kashmir.
For making chain stitch rugs usually a hook instead of needle is used and long flowering designs are usually embroidered. |
