i was thinking of sending an ajrak shawl for my mother in pakistan, but i dont know if they are better for the winter or summer, since it is very hot in pakistan right now. does anyone know? please help!
Re: is ajrak a winter or summer shawl?
It is the beauty of Ajrak , it is gender independent and weather independent.
Isnt ajrak a dyed material? Shawls are really nice in Pakistan.. and winters gone too :)
i think the term ajrak refers to a sindhi shawl. They are usually the typical ethnic print. My uncle is sindhi and talks about them and his are the black dark maroon and white ones.

It can be worn in any season.

Re: is ajrak a winter or summer shawl?
i love ajraks. they can be worn anywhere in any weather.
Re: is ajrak a winter or summer shawl?
ajrak is typically not worn in summer because it is unsuitable/uncomfortable in the heat.
Re: is ajrak a winter or summer shawl?
ajrak is the sindhi shawl.. however ajrak is reffered to more as a design itself than a particular type of shawl...
there are ajrak bed sheets, shawls, suits...
so i guess it depends on the fabric of ur ajrak shawl... if its closer to a heavy cotton it might be wise to use it with an airy lawn-ish shirt.
