In business attire, you have fewer options for wearing a cape or scarf. But when it comes to casual wear, there are plenty of ways to wear a steal. You can tie it up, pleat or just let it flow on its own.
Jamdani (extra weft) weaving, a style unique to Bengal…literally like “hand embroidery” on the loom. The method of weaving resembles tapestry work in which small shuttles of coloured, gold or silver threads, are passed through the warp. Jamdani, because of its intricate patterns, has always been a highly expensive product.

How the Loom weaves a story | Making Jamdani is very labor intensive. It involves a community of artisans, often a family of weavers or dyers, coordinating with each other, building upon years of tradition. Once the desired yarn has been procured from the market, the following processes are involved in creating a finished product. Step 1. Dyeing - Yarns (in hanks) are hand dyed by the local dyers. Finer the yarn, the more difficult its dyeing. The yarn needs careful handling as consistent water treatment reduces its strength. Step 2. Reeling - Reeling of dyed yarns into spools is done by hand on the “charkhas” or spinning wheels. For handspun cotton, the dyed thread is strengthened and softened by soaking overnight in a solution of rice water starch, allowing the women to wind it more easily onto bobbins. It is tedious work done early in the morning, usually between 4 and 9, before the increasing heat dries the thread, making it more difficult to handle. Step 3. Warping/Drumming - The wound bobbins are sent to another worker who prepares the warp on a beam. Warp yarns are laid out on a large wooden wheel-like structure called a “drum...or beam” as per the specified warping pattern. Step 4. Healding - After drumming, threading of yarns is done through needle-like healds and then passed through the reed (a comb like structure to beat the weft in place at the time of weaving). Healding is done early in the morning, in bright light. It’s a tedious process and needs a lot of precision. Step 5. Weaving - Fabric is woven using the fly shuttle in traditional pit looms. Weaving a jamdani is a matter of skill and patience...and when it is done using fine yarn, it requires even more endurance from the weaver. The yarn has a tendency to break if too much strength is applied or entangle if the tension is not just right...hence weaving is slow and time consuming. Step 6. Finishing - After weaving, the ends in each piece are knotted and fringe finished. Then the piece is washed to remove all traces of gum/starch...and finally ironed. |

Verified Partner Explore All Karomi Crafts ‘n’ Textiles ProductsKaromi entered the handweaving sector in 2007 with a weaver in West Bengal, India. Inspired by the desire to blend Bengal's rich textile traditions with art and design, founder Sarita ganeriwara explored the weaving community in the region before deciding to settle in Jamdani. Jamdani has its roots in Mugal Bengal and is a traditional weaving style with the addition of wefts that can be used to weave complex patterns such as embroidery on a loom. Fascinated by the endless possibilities offered by this timeless technique, Sarita embarked on a journey to create design-driven Jamdani with her sister, Sarika Ginodia. Saree, stall, dupatta, yard goods. Design and color sensitivity are their strengths, but the texture of textiles distinguishes us from others by the combination of different types of threads and fabrics.

For those of you using a 44-inch wide fabric, this guide suggests measurements for a standard L Size. Think of this as your starting point. If you're working with different sizes or fabric widths, just adjust up or down accordingly. Hope this helps!
When it comes to how much fabric you'll need, it really depends on the design. We'd recommend having a chat with your designer or tailor before you order, just to be on the safe side.
