ABN Charmaghan Wool Mixing Technique in Royee Village
Abstract
The video showcases ABN from Royee village demonstrating the traditional wool mixing technique known as charmaghan. In this process, a large stone is placed on a bed of wool, which is then plucked and spread by hand to ensure thorough mixing. This method not only softens and blends the wool but also prepares it for easier carding, ultimately enhancing the quality of the finished shu.
