Inside the Craft: How We Weave the Kashmiri Gold Shemagh — AlFajr Keffiyeh Co.

Alumar Shemagh

The Making of Our Kashmiri Gold Shemagh

The Kashmiri Gold Shemagh is our quiet statement of craft. It drapes softly, holds structure, and carries the warmth of tradition. At ALFAJR KEFFIYEH CO., we build it with disciplined precision—from fine viscose yarn to a globally accepted design that feels refined in every setting.


Fine Viscose Yarn — Soft Hand, Clean Drape

We start with premium viscose yarn selected for its fluid fall and breathable comfort. Viscose blends beautifully with seasonal wardrobes: cool to the touch in warm weather and easy to layer when the temperature drops. Its filament consistency keeps the fabric lustrous, smooth, and gentle on skin.


Power Looms — Built for Accuracy

Each shemagh is woven on power looms tuned for steady tension and clean selvedges. This ensures the cloth stays balanced: no skew, no twist—just a stable weave that holds its shape through wear and care.


1200 Jacquard Hooks — Precision in Every Motif

Pattern clarity defines Kashmiri Gold. Our jacquard heads use 1200 hooks to control warp threads individually, producing crisp geometry, even borders, and consistent tassel pathways. The result is a motif that reads clearly from both sides—proof of weaving, not printing.


A Globally Accepted Design

The Kashmiri Gold palette honors regional roots while fitting modern wardrobes. It pairs with denim, tailoring, and travel layers—minimal, dignified, and versatile. This is why the design is globally accepted: it stays authentic while adapting to contemporary style.

Care Made Simple (Viscose-Rich Weaves)

  • Hand wash in cool water with mild liquid detergent.
  • Do not wring; press out water gently. Lay flat to dry in shade.
  • Iron on low from the reverse side. Avoid tassels and borders.
