Technique
Jaala is a weaving technique used to create intricate motifs and patterns that are too complex for a standard dobby mechanism. In this method, each warp thread is individually tied to a specific horizontal thread that needs to be lifted simultaneously according to a pre-designed graph. The process requires two artisans: one sits behind the shafts, over the warp, manually lifting the jaala threads with a wooden hook after each pick to match the pattern’s repetition, while the other artisan weaves the fabric. This synchronised effort allows for the creation of elaborate and delicate designs.
