The Perfect Throw for Every Season & Every Space
The Process: A collective Art Form
-
Thread Preparation
Before weaving begins, the threads are meticulously arranged by an expert artisan dedicated solely to this step. This is a crucial process—every color and fiber must be perfectly aligned to create the intended pattern and texture. The artisan spends hours ensuring that each thread is in its precise place, as even the smallest misalignment could alter the final design.

Setting The Pedal Loom
The loom is then adjusted to the exact size required for each piece. Different textiles call for different loom settings, and artisans must carefully position the warp threads and adjust the loom’s parts to achieve the perfect tension and symmetry. This step requires technical expertise and an intimate understanding of the loom, a skill passed down through generations.

The Weaving: A Dance of Precision
Once the loom is prepared, the artistry begins. This stage demands complete concentration—every movement of the foot pedals and shuttle must be perfectly synchronized. Unlike modern weaving machines, the pedal loom is fully manual, requiring a precise rhythm between footwork, hand coordination, and eye awareness from beginning to end.
