I was born in the Kashmir valley, where the tradition of carpet weaving and chain stitching is as old as the land itself. For chain stitching of carpets we use a hassle cotton base, sketch out the design or impress it with a wooden die prepared by me and our master designer. Then, four artisans begin chain-stitching with pure wool from four sides giving rise to a well-prepared structure. It takes around 8-10 days to make a rug. Demand for chain-stitched rugs has increased however, most people have been mistakenly led to believe that such sophisticated products are woven on a machine and they are thus hesitant to purchase. I would want this art to continue in our family, and my immediate business plans are to give a worldwide exposure to our rugs.'What is Worldstock?
