Abstract

A detailed close-up captures SMD’s hands as he carefully clips the edges of the finished Shu cloth with precision scissors. His expert eyes search for any imperfections in the creamy, soft layers of hand-felted wool. This meticulous process ensures the final product meets the high standards of traditional craftsmanship in Garam Chashma.
