Pakko Embroidery

Pakko means solid, strong. An essential characteristic of this embroidery is the solid compactness in the designs. It is achieved mainly through an abundant use of the tight, open and elongated chain stitch known as the cheereli saankdi.

This stitch is used, along with a few other stitches, to create floral, animal and bird motifs. Craftswomen use mirrors and the khann — a single unit of the chain stitch — to lighten the density of Pakko embroidery. The khann also works as an effective highlighter.

Pakko embroidery is practised by the Sodha and Jadeja communities.
