Why handloom fabric will never go out of Style
With increased awareness of the fashion industry's negative impact on the environment, people have started to show a massive desire for handmade and hand-loomed items.
They realize the value and specialty handmade pieces bring to the table and in one's life. There is something special about handloom fabrics, it not only provides exclusive textiles, but the mastery of handloom fabrics is unique, authentic, and artistic.
The people behind creating this fabric have put significant effort, love, and passion into making these beautiful textiles.
So ever wondered what really are handloom fabrics?
What are handloom fabrics?
So, before learning about handloom fabrics, let us know what a loom is first.
A loom is a machine operated to weave cloth and tapestry. The primary purpose of any loom is to hold the warp threads under tension to stimulate the weft threads' interweaving to create a textile.
Further, handloom fabrics are handwoven fabrics created on this weaving machine.
To create a handloom fabric, the weaver starts the process by interlacing a set of vertical threads(the warp) with a bunch of horizontal threads(the weft).
Then the loom holds the warp threads under tension to facilitate the interweaving of the weft threads over and above the warp using a weaving shuttle. Finally, the weaver repeats the interweaving process until the handloom fabric is created.
Handloom weaving requires the utmost patience, artistry, technical skills, and physical strength.
Creating handloom fabrics is not just about protecting nature but also about love. The weaver's passionate about what they are making, they put their heart and soul into creating this textile. They select the yarn, pattern, color, texture, and accurate technique to create the suitable fabric, and it's reflected on the material.
Handloom fabrics don't feature just one type of fabric, instead, it comes in a variety of rich colors, patterns, and designs.
The reason handloom fabrics have wide varieties is that it's directly linked to the culture of each community. They have passed on their designs from generation to and formed an identity of their own.
Advantages of handloom fabrics:-
Originality and Uniqueness
The most significant advantage of handloom fabric is that no two hand-loomed materials are the same. Each fabric exhibits unique craftsmanship.
Variousness
As the handloom allows the weavers to explore their creativity in creating beautiful textiles, they explore new ideas and make some extravagant designs and patterns.
Quality
The fibers used to create handloom fabrics are high-quality natural fibers like cotton, linen, silk, and wool; these are environmentally friendly and long-lasting fabrics.
Good for the skin
The handlooms use natural fibers that protect the skin and don't harm it. In addition, it feels good on the skin, unlike synthetic fiber.
Skill preservation and source of livelihood
Since ancient times handloom has proved to be a great source of livelihood across rural India. Even today, the handloom community has preserved its heritage and employs numerous people.
Types of Handloom Fabrics:
Khadi: Khadi, the hand-spun fabric, referred to as the hope of our environment is a fabric known for our nation's freedom struggle, representing the love for our country and its people.
It is made by using natural fiber and is woven so that this fabric will keep the body cool during summer and warm during winter.
Kala Cotton: Kala Cotton is an organic woven textile that allows for sustainable living, as the production is purely ecological with no pesticides and synthetic fertilizers used. It is durable, strong, and stretchable, and it takes dye brilliantly
Tussar Silk: Tussar Silk is the strongest natural textile in the world. The fabric is highly breathable with high moisture-wicking abilities. Despite its immense tensile strength, its softness has made it a hotly desired commodity throughout history.
Mulberry: Mulberry silk is the highest quality silk that is smooth to the touch and has a glossy look. It is one of the oldest types of silk fabric that comes from moth cocoons.
What makes mulberry silk different from other silks is the uniform quality of the fibers. The diameter, color, and texture of a strand of mulberry silk are the same from one cocoon to another.
Muga Silk: Muga Silk follows the path of Ahimsa, meaning not causing harm to other living things. Therefore, this silk is produced without killing the creatures that crafted it. Instead, this silk is a step towards appreciating and supporting the beautiful soul and nature that created it.
Banana: Banana fabric is developed from the outer lining of banana peels. This fabric is one of the most luxurious fabrics. It is soft like silk on the inside and hard like cotton on the outside, making it one of the best fabrics to create comfortable, long-lasting, quality garments, decors, and accessories.
Organic Cotton: Organic cotton comes with various benefits for our environment and our people. For example, this fabric doesn't retain chemicals from its garments, due to which it reduces exposure to allergens and dermatological issues.
The use of organic cotton benefits the farmer as they are exposed to fewer chemicals.
There are so many benefits and types of handloom fabrics that they can never get out of style.

Currently fascinated by
Being in the presence of
Aizome 藍染め
Being in the presence
Of Tokushima's harvest, Awa
Being in the presence of
800 years old of planting, and growing
And thousands of hands at work
Now only a hand full of hands
Remains
Being in the presence of
Fujie Moeno 藤江萌乃
And her blue hands that never wear
Moe萌 : a prayer that the grass grows
Through life's dark and bright times
A prayer destined for Persicaria tinctoria?
A prayer destioned for Ai no ha
I don’t want gloves
I don’t want gloves
Are you sure?
I can’t do gloves
I couldn't do otherwise
But dip my thirsty hands in
The darkest of the blues
Kachiiro 褐色
No I am no samurai
But I am deserving of
Kachiiro 褐色
Or was it the darkest of greens
Or was it green giving breath to blue
I don't know
But I want to do it all over again

Isopuppy's got legs for DAYS
Just need to get the top carapace on and write up the tutorial, and y'all can make your own Good Dog.
My baby spent most of the morning crawl-chasing me around, desperately pointing at the pupper to be allowed a hug (which she was finally granted just before nap time when I got the back seam closed, and she hugged it So Hard, then gummed those antennae real good). Toddler is demanding he be allowed to sleep with it tonight. So isopups are VERY snugglable, is what I'm saying.
#I love that white fabric now that it's all sewn up#that white fabric was THE BANE OF MY EXISTENCE while working with it#Had to get out a vacuum to deal with how much it was shedding#Had to literally have a dedicated outfit to sacrifice to the shedding that I changed in and out of before approaching that fabric#Had to WEAR A MASK at the sewing machine to keep it out of my mouth#There are people in a fabric factory somewhere dying of Faux Fur Lung there's no way there aren't#Anyway looking forward to the shell!#The non-shedding shell!#Salvage#The amazing isopuppy#avatar the last airbender#atla#Sewing
