About the craft: Khes weaving is a textile craft is indigenous to rural Punjab in North India. A thick woven cloth, Khes fabric is primarily woven by women on pit looms. They weaved this fabric for their wedding trousseau for its multiple uses. Due to cheaper machine made alternatives, the craft has seen a dramatic decline over the years where looms have been stored away for years.
