Weaving traditions

Weaving traditions refer to the cultural practices and techniques passed down through generations for creating textiles by interlacing threads or yarns. These traditions often hold cultural significance, showcasing unique patterns, materials, and methods specific to a community or region. They serve as a way to preserve cultural identity, tell stories, and express artistry. Weaving can be done using traditional hand tools or modern machinery, but the core idea remains the same: carefully intertwining fibers to produce fabrics used in clothing, home decor, and ceremonial items. These practices reflect a community’s history, environment, and values.
