Kutch has managed admirably to preserve the culture of both its court and nomadic peoples. The special Woolen shawls of this region with embroidery are very famous because of their bright look that complements a winter day. The embroidery is never very dense but the colors are combined in such a manner that the brightness of body colors of the wool shawls is always enhanced. With addition of a little mirror work, the wool shawls look even prettier. The Rabari tribe of Kutch is an expert in such embroidery. The patterns of any embroidery are first sketched in mud with needles and then a final sketching is done in double running stitch.
