Answer:
India can be termed as the homeland of myriad fabrics and textiles designed in luminous hues and patterns. One of these many textiles is Ikat - a handwoven fabric whose charm and versatility allows year-round comfort.
The technique of making Ikat, known as ‘Ikkat’ has its origins from around the world, including South East Asia, South America and West Africa. It’s an ancient art that was derived from the Malay word, ‘Mengikat’ which means to tie. 19th & 20th-century evidence indicates that circa 200 years ago, Asia started producing high-quality ikat textiles.The core fabrics used for producing ikat are silk & cotton, and the process used is called 'resist dyeing'.
Types of ikat :-
Warp ikat
In warp ikat, the warp threads are dyed, and weft yarns are woven. The patterns are quite visible on the warp lay.
Weft ikat
Weft ikat method is more complex than warp ikat. Here, the weft threads are ikat dyed first, and the pattern starts appearing with the weaving process. This process forms erratic designs, and the yarns are re-adjusted, forming patterns deftly in horizontal lines.
Double ikat
Double Ikat is a labour and time intensive technique which is first hand dyed and then weaved. It’s done with both weft and warp yarns. Sarees like Pochampally and Puttapaka feature double ikat motifs.
Maintenance
A gentle hand wash in cold water is an ideal way to keep your ikat in pristine condition.
