Handloom Weaving

Handloom Weaving is a textile production method in which woven fabrics are constructed manually on a loom without mechanical power, distinguished from mechanized weaving by its reliance on human operation to interlace warp and weft threads through direct manual or foot-powered control of shedding, picking, and beating-up motions.
