The Essence of Weaving

Description

Drieghan weaving technology is quite advanced. The weaving technologies of Drieghan are considered important assets that were passed down by the founders of Drieghan. Their weaving technologies embody the culture and spirit of the Drieghan people. The people of Drieghan believe that the braiding of fabric to make yarn symbolizes birth and that the act of weaving yarn represents the process by which a person's life progresses. Cutting off the last remaining snippets of yarn is believed to represent the passing of people. The birth of new family members is often celebrated with gifts of carpets and those who pass away are memorialized by hanging weaved goods in an altar.
