Fashion Technology

We generally hear many types of sarees name in our lives. But have we ever heard of woollen saree anywhere, probably not. Woollen yarn is used as shawls, scarves, accessories etc. It is also used as embroidery thread in fabric but not as a saree. So we have planned to introduce a new product of weaving woollen saree in handloom. The process follows weaving saree with warp and weft with a design consisting of motif in it. The sample undergoes testing like comparison of wool and cashmere biological structure under microscope, tensile strength and elongation, colour fastness to water and light, draping ability and wash ability. This project deals with the study of wool, its biological structure, its types and its production. We have decided to use cashmere yarn for weaving saree which is one of the types of wool. According to our studies cashmere is light weight wool used for weaving shawls and by testing the properties of Cashmere fabric we have decided to develop the product. The purpose of this project is whether to find wool can be able to weave as saree and can be worn in all the climatic conditions.
