The pattern is not printed or embroidered onto the cloth; it is built into the weave itself, colour by colour, using small wooden bobbins called \u003cem\u003ekanis\u003c\/em\u003e, each wound with a different shade. The weaver follows a written pattern, the \u003cem\u003etalim\u003c\/em\u003e, line by line, and can add only a few centimetres a day. \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/journal\/kani-vs-sozni\"\u003eKani vs sozni, explained\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe colour\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA white ground is the classic setting for fine Kani work because it shows every colour in the pattern at full strength, and it is the ground most often chosen for a bride. \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/journal\/how-to-choose-a-wedding-shawl\"\u003eRead our guide to choosing a wedding shawl\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe base\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWoven on our finest hand-spun Kashmiri pashmina, the same class of yarn used for our ring shawls, which is what separates this piece from the Everyday Kani in the same colour. \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/journal\/how-to-tell-real-pashmina\"\u003eHow we test pashmina\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKani weave, pattern woven in on the loom, not embroidered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine hand-spun Kashmiri pashmina\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApprox. 40\" × 80\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry clean only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandwoven in Kashmir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach Kani is woven once; when this piece sells it will not be repeated.
