The Art of Kashmiri Sozni
Sozni is one of Kashmir’s celebrated traditional embroidery crafts, renowned for its fine needlework, intricate motifs, and detailed patterns. The craft requires a steady hand, exceptional patience, and a deep understanding of traditional designs.
The embroidery is executed by hand using techniques that predominantly include Sozni stitch, darn stitch, and stem stitch. Buttonhole, herringbone, chain, satin, and knot stitches may also be used in smaller proportions.
The combination of Palladar and Hashidar designs gives this shawl its distinctive character, bringing traditional Kashmiri decorative artistry together in a timeless textile.
