The preserved knowledge

Preserved in the Vault

This is Mohammad's Craft DNA — knowledge captured for researchers, apprentices, and future generations.

Lineage

Family · place · year

  • Bhaderwah family carpet weavers — three generations.
  • His grandfather's talim notation book is the only copy that exists.

Technique Walkthrough

How the work is made

  • Talim is read aloud across the loom by the senior weaver.
  • Colour calls are tracked on a wall slate, never paper.

Decision Knowledge

When to start, when to stop

  • A new pattern is tested on a small sampler before the main loom is set.
  • If the talim notation cannot be sung, the pattern is abandoned.

Supplier Graph

Where the materials begin

  • Wool from Bhaderwah shepherds.
  • Dyes mixed in his cousin's small dye-house in Kishtwar.
