Jajim weaving in the village of Ziarat Golestan in Iran
Jajim is a handmade fabric made of thick fabric similar to Plas, which is also thinner than Plus, and it is woven from colorful and delicate woolen or cotton threads or a mixture of the two. The raw materials of Jajim are wool, and its texture is similar to that of kilim, except that Jajim is woven into four boards and joined and sewn together after weaving. Jajims do not have lint and can be used on both sides. Immigrants benefit greatly from it, and its use as a cover and protector for the cold. Jajim was the most appropriate thing to throw on a chair in the past. The art of jajim weaving in the village of Ziarat in Gorgan is a legacy passed down from mothers to their daughters and always passed down from generation to generation. The women artists of Jajim Baf in the village of Ziarat in Gorgan tie the knot in the fabric of their existence and create the most beautiful patterns with their beautiful fingers. They set up their workshops in the backyards of their homes, hoping to share the family’s economic cycle as they did in the past. Today, this art of women’s pilgrimage requires the help of the men’s government so that it is not forgotten in the basement of their houses.
