The extremely high and isolated mountains of Kashmir are a near-paradise on earth. Shahid captures the nighttime ambience of the region in this wool kani shawl, handwoven in the traditional way. He creates the weft patterns with bobbins of colorful wool — as many as 75 to 100 at a time — rather than the traditional shuttles.

This shawls background material is fairly finely woven with a paisley pattern. The embroidery, in contrast, is made with fairly heavy thread. The colors are beautiful. The heavy embroidery makes this particularly good for wearing with a winter coat or on a very chilly day
