Conclusion:

Even as members of NIFT student we were get so much knowledge of durries ,as Warangal Durries /
Carpets is the pride of Telangana, India's southernmost state. we were rarely exposed to artisans
and craftspeople . Interacting with the artisans and learning about their lives, observing and
comprehending the entire weaving process in detail, seeing their workplaces, and learning about
their challenges completely transformed our perspective on handicrafts. The project revolves us a lot
of insights and overall knowledge about the craft cluster around the importance of handcraft and
how these craftsmen are safeguarding Indian cultural history of making durries . This craft cluster
itself is an example that anything and everything is possible One question that prompted us to
pursue this project was, "As this was conducted online the artisans, we learned so many things from
artisans who they live their life and the process of making durries .

Warangal Durries are more than just a company .In they're a storey about a tradition. It continues to
tell the storey of how it all began and how it was passed down from generation to generation. A
Warangal durrie is more than just a commodity; it's a tale of true artistry and superb craftsmanship.

Weavers and craftspeople, who have faced many difficulties in their lives, The craftsmen's concerns
about attention, sanitation, and education would be addressed by ensuring that mostly gift
government initiatives were executed correctly through their own cooperatives. are urging their
children to pursue alternative careers and training them for a better life. Weavers and craftsmen's
working conditions are deteriorating today. They don't want to pass the knowledge down to the
next generation. Everything, from technology to pandemics to government indifference, is just
making things worse.However, they are experiencing difficulties as a result of Covid-19, therefore
they are looking forward to new prospects in the future. We are debating whether or not advertising
will play a significant role in the marketing of handloom textiles in the present era of e-marketing
and other sources marketing
Pit looms are created by burying four posters in the ground with an overhang slay. When
using a pit loom, the yarn is worked inside the pit to allow the warp yarn to absorb moisture
and produce superior weaving. The combination of slay and shuttle boxes is used in this
loom.
Pit Loom's Benefits
1. This loom is used to create texture fabric.
2. Increased output from the pit loom.
3. The pirn winding package can handle a high-quality weft yarn.
4. In the case of a pit loom, an average weaver can weave.
5. Moisture is easily controlled here.
6. back beams have been used to eliminate fabric flaws such yarn breaking and knots.

Frame loom
FEATURE:

This loom is mounted on a frame.


The weaver's left hand controls the movement of the thread.
More weaves, such as twill and satin, may be produced.
By weaving, the diameter of the beam can be increased.
ADVANTAGE: • It has a faster response time.
• Long-width fabrics can be woven as easily as narrow-width fabrics
• A larger number of heald can be controlled
• Better selvage
• Let off is done with a pawl lever arrangement.

Problem :
Weavers must sit for lengthy periods of time, which causes major health issues. The greatest
pain and discomfort is in the buttock region while working on the frame looms. Their own
body weight is the primary cause of this agony. Even if the weaver shifts his position while
sitting, the pain and suffering return due to the weight, pressure, and poor blood flow in the
buttock region.
Solution
Ergonomically designed chairs for handloom workers who spend the most of their time
sitting and doing their work. The upper section is detachable and can be utilised as needed
by weavers. The darkened area depicts the body regions around the buttocks that demand
additional suppleness. This will make sitting less painful.

Hank yarn
Handlooms often use yarn in the shape of hanks. A hank of yarn is a defined length of yarn
that has been coiled. Cotton yarn comes in 840 yard hanks. In contrast to cone yarn, which
is used in mill manufacturing, hank yarn is used in handloom production.
About dye

Yarn deying
For hand loom production, the yarn is colored/dyed in the form of a skein. The yarn dyeing of the
hand loom is a basic activity before the loom. Although the handloom industry is fragmented in
nature, chemical dyeing has become one of the concentrated activities in the past 50 years.
Dyeing is still performed in the village or near the center of the weaving activity. Colorants or
well-known dyes are highly colored substances that can impart color to various materials. Natural
and chemical dyes are used to dye skeins. This dyeing process is done manually, in small
batches. The dyeing work of the crank textile industry is carried out in the small and medium-
sized dyeing factories of the village. The dyeing room is equipped with equipment for dyeing
small batches and large batches of yarn
Problem : using of dying of urea during dye preparation can cause eye and skin Irritation and
other problems poisoning affected the physical and mental health of workers. Lead-based
acetate and nitrate used for dyeing can cause nerve and reproductive problems. It can affect the
cognitive and reading skills of child worker

SOLUTION:
When dealing with urea, safety goggles should be worn to protect the eyes, and employees
should wear fully covered clothing to avoid direct skin contact.
Using natural and environmentally friendly non-reactive dyes will help. And Child labor should
be completely banned. The tubs could be lifted to a set height to eliminate the need for workers
to bend.

Natural dyeing
Natural dyes are dyes extracted from bark, insects, flowers, minerals, rust and other natural
materials. Vegetable dyes are a sub-category of natural dyes, which refer to dyes derived only
from plant materials. Wool is usually the best fiber for dyeing with natural dyes. Compared with
cellulose fibers such as cotton, it can adhere to more kinds of chemical dyes, and because it is
usually washed in cold water or only dry cleaned, the relative impermanence of most natural
dyes is not a problem. cotton is not suitable for many natural dyes. Some natural dyes are
suitable for cotton, especially when they are etched with tannins. The best natural dyes for cotton
include annatto, kaki, log, madder, and indigo. All of these, except indigo, require a mordant, and
indigo requires a special type of dye tank. Synthetic fibers generally cannot be dyed with natural
dyes
