Pochampally, in Telangana, India, is
well-known for its Pochampally brand of fabrics, the base fabric being cotton,
silk or a blend of the two. The exquisite finish of the Pochampally comes
through the dyeing and weaving of pre-coloured threads which are dyed according
to the Ikat or Ikkat technique.
The
special technique of the Pochampally cotton fabric
The
Ikkat technique involves applying bindings which resist dye penetration to the
threads in pre-determined patterns and then dyeing the threads. These threads
are then woven to produce the desired pattern. When several colours are used,
the dyeing process on the threads is repeated for each of the colours chosen.
Then the fabric is woven with the multi-coloured threads into the pattern.
Within the ikkat style of dyeing are methods of single-ikkat and double-ikkat.
Single
ikkat has two variants – warp ikkat where the warp threads are dyed after
applying resists according to pattern on the warp threads. After that, only, is
the weaving done. In the weft ikkat it is the weft threads which are coloured
by applying resists before the dyeing and then weaving is done.
In
either case the dyeing is done prior to the weaving so carefully that the
pattern emerges as the weave progresses. In the double ikkat method both the
warp and weft threads are dyed before weaving.
Alternatively,
in the tie-dye method it is quite the reverse of the Ikkat style of dyeing.
Here the threads are first woven and the resist bindings then applied to the
fabric before dyeing it.

features of the Pochampally
The
painstaking efforts of the weavers in maintaining the purity of dyeing and
weaving, including the control and placement of threads during the weave
contribute largely to the complexity of the weave patterns and pleasing
appearance of the stitched apparel. Colours that are employed for the dyeing of
threads are fast and well-chosen. No wonder the outcomes of the Pochampally
fabrics display an extraordinary ethnic skill that is hard to match. Current
trends see Pochampally handloom kurtas and kurtis with ethnic patterns, shiny
zari borders and designer pallus with stylish designs and colourful prints.
