On the contrary, people, who are living in villages or rural areas, have less information about the newly designed product.

In order to create a neat, finished outside edge, the bias strip is folded upon itself during the application process. The neckline edge is attached by sewing the ... Read More

There may or may not be a full penetration of the colourant into the fibres or yarns during the dyeing process, which involves adding colour to fibre stock, yarn, or fabric.
