There are many stunning textiles workshops in Gujarat. Here are some photographs.
The first are of the famous patola of patan. The cloth is double ikat, making it wearable on both sides. This time-consuming process takes many months to complete as it involves dying both warp and weft in intricate patterns.
And then there is mushru cloth which is a satin weave on cotton base. Here are some photos from a mushru workshop near Patan.
