 Pakko embroidery is one of the best famous hand   embroidery art, the song of the needle. This style of embroidery   gets its name from the community that practices it Sodha-Rajput is   the name of the community. Pakko means in local language ‘paku   kam’ means solid. The work represents its name, strong, durable.
 The strongness and denseness of the work is achieved through an       abundant use of the tight, open and elongated chain stich known
 as the cheereli saankdi. The artists get inspiration for their works   from natural elements. Designing the birds, animals and
 figurative motifs in their works, they reflect the respect for nature.   Denseness and colour combination is the admirable skill of the   artists.
 In this embroidery, the crafts women use mirrors and daano. They     do a single unit of the chain stich to lighten the density of
 Pakko embroidery. They do daano, using the white threads, as an   effective highlighter. By this work, the craftswomen not only   represent their creative skill, but also represent the tradition.
