Technique
Khapa is a weaving technique used to insert extra weft threads to create simple geometric patterns, either in the border, pallu, or motifs across the body of a saree. A flat, smooth wooden tool called a 'Khapa' is inserted into the warp threads according to the desired placement, size, and width of the motif. The Khapa tool is then lifted to raise specific warp threads, allowing the extra weft to be manually woven through, forming the motif as it interlaces with the warp.
