IKAT Fabric, Uzbekistan, IKAT Weaving
I love all fabrics but I came across this Ikat sometime ago and I found it very interesting how they produce this product. It is a centuries old tradition of hand dyed and hand woven in Fergana Valley of Uzbekistan using a centuries old technique of Ikat weaving. The technique requires precision in tying and wrapping silk threads before dying in order to create a desired pattern. Number of times threads will be tied and wrapped depends on the complexity of Ikat pattern and number of colors involved in design. This fabric can be very costly as it is made overseas. But you will love the designs that come in the fabric they are gorgeous. Reminds me of Summer. Really beautiful colors… Anyone find a great place to get IKat fabric at a reasonable price let me know. Here is one place I found some beautiful fabric. Mumbai Ikat or Bravado Ikat
