How Are Handloom Rugs Made

Yarn for handloom carpets is woven on a handloom by the interlacing of warp, running length-wise and weft or filling, running width-wise. Warp threads are raised and lowered by manual shedding motion to form shed. Through this shed, the shuttle is passed carrying across the weft thread which is beaten against the woven fabric by the movable comb-like frame or reed. When the heddle is shifted, the two sets of warp reverse position, binding the weft into the fabric and opening other sheds.  The weaving of handloom carpets involves three motions that are Shedding, Picking and Beating. Shedding motion separates warp threads, according to the pattern to allow for weft insertions or picking prior to beating. Picking is the operation wherein after the shed has been formed, the length of the weft is inserted through the shed. As soon as a weft yarn is inserted, the reed pushes or beats up the weft to the fell of the cloth. All the three motions are carried out by the weaver manually for weaving by the interlacement of warp and weft.

The carpets made through handloom processing are well-known for comfort and capabilities. They are not only popular for numerous design innovations but also preferred largely by modern users. With the advancement of technology in the modern world, the handloom demand in the market in India has increased massively.
