Artisans creating 'Ari' on Dasoot

Artisans doing “Ari” work on Dasoot. Ari Embroidery is worked with the help of an 'Aar' holed needle, where the thread is introduced from below. This is also known as Mochi Bharat (cobbler’s stitch) in Gujarat. Earlier days silk thread was used on satin (Gaji) although the technique is simple in principle, it requires considerable skill and long practice.
