  • Ply-Split Braiding
    Ply-split Braiding - An Introduction by Julie Hedges Introduction Ply-Split Braiding has been found extensively in Rajasthan and Gujarat, North West India and a few other places, where it has mainly been used to make camel girths and animal regalia. Many of the designs are highly patterned and often figurative and were traditionally made by men whilst tending their flocks of camels and goats. Figure 1. During the 1990’s Peter Collingwood travelled to India and collected and analysed braided artifacts, the techniques of which had been barely documented before. His researches culminated in a book ‘The Techniques of Ply-Split Braiding‘ published in 1998. During this time lectures, workshops and demonstrations given by Peter in the UK, Europe, USA & Japan brought the technique to a wider audience. Consequently weavers & braidmakers have explored and developed it in a number of directions. Textile jewellery, bags, belts, hats and even dresses have been developed whilst others have taken the techniques into 3D vessels, baskets and sculptures. See Ply- Split Braiding Bibliography and Resources for reference to makers, further information about the technique and resources. Materials Figure 1. High twist cords are essential for Ply-splitting. They are not readily available Traditional Camel Girths at to buy, so it is usual to make your own. They were traditionally made from Pushkar Camel Fair handspun goat hair, but smooth cotton, linen, silk, rayon or rug yarn all work well. See Ply- Splitting resources for cord winder suppliers.
