    Craftsmen spend hours meticulously producing Ajrak by mapping out the pattern on thick, starched cotton fabric that holds its rigid shape. Despite cheap, machine-made copies flooding the market, Imran Soomro and his family are determined to keep the craft alive in Bhit Shah, Pakistan.

    PLEASE - this is a common thread through these videos - GIVE US A LINK TO BUY FROM PEOPLE IF THEY SELL ONLINE!
    I’ve noticed this on so many of the “so expensive” videos - the people will say they sell online but you don’t give links to their shop, but you will take advantage of their struggle for CZcams views?
    Give us a chance to help!!!
