    For centuries in Varanasi, a Muslim guild has embroidered and weaved with no equal. Weaving is more of a cottage industry with thousands of people associated directly or indirectly with the handloom silk industry of the region around Varanasi. The weavers take immense pride in weaving sarees, spun from special silk yarn, with specialized designs, motifs and scenes from the rich culture of India.
