This woolen blanket is traditionally worn by the Shauka women. It is however much lighter and the fabric is brushed from inside which gives a fuller texture to keep the wearer warm in old regions.

Thulma is woven either on a pit loom or the frame loom. It is woven in long strips that are cut and stitched together. the edges are finished with a blanket stitch. the colors- off white and grey are of the undyed wool sheared from the local sheep.
