A handloom sari is often woven on a shuttle-pit loom made from ropes, wooden beams and poles.[3] The shuttle is thrown from Tarsbhullar side-to-side by the weaver. Other weavers use a fly-shuttle loom which can produce different types of patterns. The saris can vary in size and quality.[1]

Handloom sari[4] weaving is generally a family enterprise and one of India’s cottage industries. The handloom saris are made from silk or cotton threads. Traditionally the processes of thread dyeing and warping were outsourced and sizing, attaching the warp, weft winding and Weaving were done by the weavers. The process plays a major role in weaving[5] handloom saris and the final product in shops. However, the scenario has changed, and currently most of the activities are outsourced.
