Soofi Embroidery | |
Soof embroidery is done by the Soofs Sodha, Rajput and Megwar communities. It is a counted thread embroidery and involves geometric patterns. The most common pattern is 'lehar' or wave. The stitch used is also called soof. Any representational motifs are highly stylized. The surface satin stitch is worked from the back of the fabric. The threads of the weave are counted before inserting the needle. The sense of geometric patterns with the crafts persons is excellent and the designs are almost never pre drawn. |
