Sabai Grass Weaving of West bengal
It was the British many centuries ago who recognized the usefulness of Sabai Grass, as it was a strong and durable natural fiber and perfect for their military use. So they hired these rural people and also craftsmen from Kolkata to make ropes for them. Today, these Sabai Grass products contribute to the ecological revolution and outperform synthetic products. The dyes used for coloring are natural and therefore Sabai grass and Bengal carpets are in great demand in Western countries.
Process of Sabai grass weaving
After harvesting, the grass is dried in the sun, sorted by length and quality, and then packed into bundles. To make the rope, the grass is twisted by hand and then a cycle wheel is used to tighten these twists. The next step is to remove the roughness from these twists.
