In Episode #2 “How to weave Central Asian pile textiles?” (series The world of Central Asian textiles) Victoria introduces pile textiles – the "3D version" of plain textiles. We discuss what materials Central Asian craftswomen normally use to make pile textiles and what steps are included in the process. I experimented a bit with the background sounds which accompany Victoria's descriptions to facilitate (low-key) immersive experience. Enjoy!

The melody you hear at the beginning & end of the episode is "Chuli Irok", a folk Uzbek melody played on dutar by Gulyam Kuchkarov.
