About Craft
This south cotton collection of sarees is completely hand dyed. First intricate design is woven with zari threads all over the undyed cotton fabric and in the form of checkered pattern all over the body. Then the saree is dyed with the colour of the saree body. Once dried only the borders and pallus are dyed with a different colour to form the beautiful traditional sarees. As these are hand dyed you may find that the border line and the pallu line may not be straight always but that proves the authenticity of the hand work. Similarly the pallu may have pointy corners as the sarees are dried in open by handing the sarees by the pallu.
