PAKKO
Pakko embroidery is done by the Marwada community. The word
pakko means solid.It is a dense variation of two sided button hole stitch which
gives the embroidery a raised appearance. Mirrors are used frequently along
with the bakhiya – a detailed stitch which looks like ants walking in a row.The
daana stitch can appear anywhere on the design just like grains thrown on a
map. The original design is drawn free hand and then transferred to the cloth
by a stencil.
