Creating
an atmosphere near the LOOM
The
warp is set and the fabric is ready to weave
and
so is in place is the weaver…ready for a conscious workout!
The
cling of the shuttle making musical sooth of a ti..ti…….on its travel from one
end to the other end, to insert the weft yarn for making the fabric.
The
tapping of the legs to push the peddle up-and-down. Oh!!! The magic of
Coordination. Yes now both the hands are also involved… along with both
the legs.
The
Right hand is drawing the threads to be lifted and the left one to beat the
yarns to get closer, while the yarns mindfully overlap and get locked.
Minute-by-minute,
hour-by-hour, the fabric weaves itself into an inch-by-inch colourful vibrance.
