Mashru Weavers

             Before 50 years ago in Patan in Gujarat there had 400 peat looms but now a days there are only 30 peat looms very less weavers are present now a days, No one new comer will come to in this business even work too, I found that weavers are more healthy and they have a long life because of  Mashru Weaving during work time their hands and legs have good exercise.This Mashru weaving is based on mathematics, weavers are not educated but their maths so excellent due to this work. Weavers making Design by counting each silk stripe. Making one complete Mashru piece 8 to 9 process have to do.

              There is such a innovative fabric made by Mahru weavers. In this work two cast involved Khatri and Muslim, Both their people are work together and they are dependable to each other.

    They are making different kind of design like Khajuri,Kankan,Mamool,Panch Pato etc...
