At 75, Kashmir's last Pashmina shuttle maker teaches son his craft

At 75, Abdul Majeed Zargar stands as the lone craftsman creating traditional wooden Mukh shuttles in Kashmir. With years of dedicated craftsmanship, he has modernized their design for increased longevity. Sadly, younger generations show little interest in learning these skills. Now, Zargar is devoted to teaching his son, hoping to keep this vital artisan tradition alive, as its disappearance would profoundly impact Kashmir's handloom weaving heritage.
