The Kashmiri shawls, especially the pashmina shawls are famous worldwide for their smooth texture and the warmth they induce. An interesting fact about the Pashmina shawl is it can pass through a finger ring.<\/span><\/p>\n

The material is so smooth that you can actually feel the silky texture and feel the palm slip on it. You can buy them at <\/span>JK Government Emporium<\/b>, opposite Dal Lake. It is a government-owned shop and you will find genuine and affordable products here.<\/span><\/p>\n

Crewel embroidered clothing<\/span><\/h2>\n

Crewel embroidery<\/span><\/a> is a type of surface embroidery using wool. It is a thousand-year-old technique, still in use. In Srinagar, you can find rugs, baggy tops, bottoms, bags, etc with this embroidery. We suggest investing in the clothing with this embroidery as they never go out of fashion and makes one stand out in the crowd.<\/span><\/p>\n

Walnut wood handicrafts<\/span><\/h2>\n
