project background:
my parents have constructed the guest house of their dreams, and it's the Green Dragon Inn (pics some other time, but trust: my mom is on her interior decorating GAME for this property).
the bed is a four-poster of wrought iron vines and leaves, with gauzy white drapes as a canopy all round:
Tumblr media
so the holiday plan is a set of handwoven silk curtain "ties" (with neodymium magnets in the ends) for that bed.
I searched twistedthreads.org for "vines" and got a bunch of options, but settled on the one above with gold leaves on a green background. Bought some pure silk from my favorite discount yarn dealer, Old Mill Yarns, and headed to the dye pot to realize my vision.
the pattern is not balanced, but since I am hoping for four ties from the band, I will turn the cards forward for like 20 repeats then backward for like 20 repeats (etc) and just cut out the crappiness of the turns.

My Atla headcannons/theories
•Alpacas are native to the land of the Southern Air Temple.
•The Water Tribe engagement necklaces are made from a form of nacre (because it’s more fun that way) from like a barnacle-clam or smthg.
And the ribbon isn’t imported silk from the Fire Nation (they’re based on Japan and why does Japan have silk? Bc the humidity. Fite me) or lotus silk from the Earth Kingdom (they totally took the FN’s way of mulberry silk making, excellerated via the colonies, but that’s a lotta land! And I’m fascinated by how many diff ways we can make fabric. Obv they also have the various forms of sheep too).
Tumblr media
But something special and from around those respective areas.
So I present to you the ribbons being made from the northern yak-things and southern leopard-things, etc.
But if you really wanna show how devoted and serious and skilled you are?
Sea Silk!
Which I decree as having distribution around both regions via the oyster-clam or whatever it would be in this world. (In this case, it turns a deep, beautiful blue instead of gold—at least, that’s how the Tribespeople prepare it anyway.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also Moth Silk!
Same with the arctic wooly bear moths as northern wooly bear-moths and southern snow leopard-moths.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hell! For the fuck of it, let’s throw in some more fiber making things like mollusk-coral or cat-(Greenland) shark “hair” or sea feathers/crinoids (yes, I’m keeping that the same bc they’re special bois).
I’m gonna have so much fun with this my fics. Holy shit. I can’t believe I haven’t seen more ppl try to look into this. I, for one, have always wondered.
…. And I’ve always wondered why the Tribespeople don’t have brown eyes. Like it’s cute that the usually waterbending ppl who live with glaciers have blue eyes, but don’t we all know that that HURTS like shit in the reflecting snow and ice? I don’t have blue eyes but man did my genes hate me so I know how it feels. Just saying….

Why handloom fabric will never go out of Style
With increased awareness of the fashion industry's negative impact on the environment, people have started to show a massive desire for handmade and hand-loomed items.
They realize the value and specialty handmade pieces bring to the table and in one's life. There is something special about handloom fabrics, it not only provides exclusive textiles, but the mastery of handloom fabrics is unique, authentic, and artistic.
The people behind creating this fabric have put significant effort, love, and passion into making these beautiful textiles.
So ever wondered what really are handloom fabrics?
What are handloom fabrics?
So, before learning about handloom fabrics, let us know what a loom is first.
A loom is a machine operated to weave cloth and tapestry. The primary purpose of any loom is to hold the warp threads under tension to stimulate the weft threads' interweaving to create a textile.
Tumblr media
Further, handloom fabrics are handwoven fabrics created on this weaving machine.
To create a handloom fabric, the weaver starts the process by interlacing a set of vertical threads(the warp) with a bunch of horizontal threads(the weft).
Then the loom holds the warp threads under tension to facilitate the interweaving of the weft threads over and above the warp using a weaving shuttle. Finally, the weaver repeats the interweaving process until the handloom fabric is created.
Handloom weaving requires the utmost patience, artistry, technical skills, and physical strength.
Creating handloom fabrics is not just about protecting nature but also about love. The weaver's passionate about what they are making, they put their heart and soul into creating this textile. They select the yarn, pattern, color, texture, and accurate technique to create the suitable fabric, and it's reflected on the material.
Tumblr media
Handloom fabrics don't feature just one type of fabric, instead, it comes in a variety of rich colors, patterns, and designs.
The reason handloom fabrics have wide varieties is that it's directly linked to the culture of each community. They have passed on their designs from generation to and formed an identity of their own.
Advantages of handloom fabrics:-
Originality and Uniqueness
The most significant advantage of handloom fabric is that no two hand-loomed materials are the same. Each fabric exhibits unique craftsmanship.
Variousness
As the handloom allows the weavers to explore their creativity in creating beautiful textiles, they explore new ideas and make some extravagant designs and patterns.
Quality
The fibers used to create handloom fabrics are high-quality natural fibers like cotton, linen, silk, and wool; these are environmentally friendly and long-lasting fabrics.
Good for the skin
The handlooms use natural fibers that protect the skin and don't harm it. In addition, it feels good on the skin, unlike synthetic fiber.
Skill preservation and source of livelihood
Since ancient times handloom has proved to be a great source of livelihood across rural India. Even today, the handloom community has preserved its heritage and employs numerous people.
Types of Handloom Fabrics:
Khadi: Khadi, the hand-spun fabric, referred to as the hope of our environment is a fabric known for our nation's freedom struggle, representing the love for our country and its people.
It is made by using natural fiber and is woven so that this fabric will keep the body cool during summer and warm during winter.
Kala Cotton: Kala Cotton is an organic woven textile that allows for sustainable living, as the production is purely ecological with no pesticides and synthetic fertilizers used. It is durable, strong, and stretchable, and it takes dye brilliantly
Tussar Silk: Tussar Silk is the strongest natural textile in the world. The fabric is highly breathable with high moisture-wicking abilities. Despite its immense tensile strength, its softness has made it a hotly desired commodity throughout history.
Mulberry: Mulberry silk is the highest quality silk that is smooth to the touch and has a glossy look. It is one of the oldest types of silk fabric that comes from moth cocoons.
What makes mulberry silk different from other silks is the uniform quality of the fibers. The diameter, color, and texture of a strand of mulberry silk are the same from one cocoon to another.
Muga Silk: Muga Silk follows the path of Ahimsa, meaning not causing harm to other living things. Therefore, this silk is produced without killing the creatures that crafted it. Instead, this silk is a step towards appreciating and supporting the beautiful soul and nature that created it.
Banana: Banana fabric is developed from the outer lining of banana peels. This fabric is one of the most luxurious fabrics. It is soft like silk on the inside and hard like cotton on the outside, making it one of the best fabrics to create comfortable, long-lasting, quality garments, decors, and accessories.
Organic Cotton: Organic cotton comes with various benefits for our environment and our people. For example, this fabric doesn't retain chemicals from its garments, due to which it reduces exposure to allergens and dermatological issues.
The use of organic cotton benefits the farmer as they are exposed to fewer chemicals.
There are so many benefits and types of handloom fabrics that they can never get out of style.

Is organic cotton the future of sustainable development?
With the increase in climate change and global warming, each step taken by us matters, be it even by transforming our cotton closet into an organic cotton closet.
We are living in a time, where each step will either lead to an immense increase in global warming or will lead to the protection of Mother Earth. So why not make our actions count and take a step by protecting our nature by switching to organic clothing?!
As we know, the fashion industry is one of the largest industries of today, in which cotton textiles lead the line together with cotton manufacturing setting them as the highest-ranked in the fashion industry. These pieces of regular cotton constructed into garments lead to 88% more wastage of water from our resources.
Whereas Organic Cotton which has been made from natural seeds and handpicked to maintain the purity of fibers; uses 1,982 fewer gallons of water compared to regular cotton.
Gallons of water used by:
Regular cotton: 2168 gallons
Organic Cotton: 186 gallons
Due to the increase in market size of the fashion industry every year along with the cotton industry; regular cotton is handpicked by workers to keep up with the increase in demand for regular cotton and because these crops are handpicked it leads to various damages and crises such as:
Damage of fibers: As regular cotton is grown as mono-crop it destroys the soil quality, which exceeds the damage when handpicked by the farmers, leading to the destruction of fibers because of the speed and time limit ordered.
Damage to crops: Regular cotton leads to damage to crops when it is handpicked, as not much attention is paid while plucking it in bulk, due to which all the effort, time, and resources used to cultivate the crops drain out to zero.
Water wastage: The amount of clean water being depleted to produce regular cotton is extreme which might lead to a water crisis. The Clean water when used for manufacturing turns into toxic water that is disposed into freshwater bodies, causing a hazardous impact on the people deprived of this natural resource.
Wastage of resources: When all the above-mentioned factors are ignored by the manufacturers and the farmers, it directly leads to the waste of resources, as the number of resources used to produce regular cotton is way high in number when compared to the results in the end.
Regular cotton along with these damages also demands to use of chemical dyes for their further process, which is not only harmful to our bodies but is also very dangerous to the workers exposed to it, as these chemicals lead to many health problems like earring aids, lunch cancer, skin cancer, eczema and many more, other than that people can also lose their lives when exposed to these chemicals for long other than people can also lose their lives when exposed to these chemicals for long.
