Sozni Embroidery

Sozni embroidery is a traditional form of hand embroidery that originated in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. It is a type of needlework that uses fine silk thread to create delicate and intricate designs on fabrics such as shawls, dress materials and home furnishings. The embroidery is typically done using a small, hooked needle called a "sozni" and is characterized by its fine and detailed work. The designs used in Sozni embroidery are often inspired by nature and are a blend of Mughal and Kashmiri motifs. It is considered as an important craft of the region, and is also a source of income for many local artisans. Sozni embroidery is different from other embroidery techniques in a few ways: Needle: Sozni embroidery uses a small, hooked needle called a "sozni" which is different from the regular needle used in other forms of embroidery. Thread: Sozni embroidery uses fine silk thread which gives a delicate and intricate look to the designs. Style: The embroidery is done in a free-style manner, with the needle not passing through the fabric multiple times and the thread not being knotted. This makes it different from other embroidery techniques such as cross-stitch, where the needle passes through the fabric multiple times, and the thread is knotted. Designs: The designs used in Sozni embroidery are often inspired by nature and are a blend of Mughal and Kashmiri motifs. These designs are unique and different from the designs used in other embroidery techniques. Time-consuming: Due to the intricate designs and free-style manner of stitching, Sozni embroidery is considered time-consuming compared to other embroidery techniques.

What is the difference between Masterclasses and LIVE workshops?

Masterclasses are complete pre-recorded courses of 7-8 parts that have been researched and recorded by us at the Master artists homes. LIVE workshops happen in real time over zoom along with the Master Artist and a small group. Live workshops have different levels. We only have a few Masterclasses right now - Lippan art from Kutch and Pichwai art from Nathdwara, Rajasthan and are producing and adding more every month. While we cover more than 60 heritage art and craft forms in our live workshops already.

I am a beginner, which class would you recommend for me?

You could attend a beginner friendly live workshop (or even a masterclass if its Lippan or Pichwai you are interested in) and then join the foundations or advanced LIVE workshops. The different levels for the LIVE workshops are- Beginner, Foundations and Advancedyour store.
