In mystic Hindu mythology, pure
wool is regarded as the holiest fabric. It is believed that the most religious
caste, Brahmins created them from a grass called 'kusa' for religious purposes.
Sacred amulets and charms are tied with a woolen thread and black woolen
thread is commonly used to keep off the evil spirits. As we come down
the ages, we find that mainly those states or areas where winter stayed
for a longer time produced the woolens. The rest, which experienced cold
for lesser period of time, procured their woolens from the former. And that is what
made the Kashmir weavers the king of shawls and other woolen weaving. They
have throughout the ages made India the best producers of various varieties of
shawls. Apart from Kashmir, Mandi, Kulu and Chamba of Himachal Pradesh
are also great shawl producing areas.
