Skecthing has always been a handy tool for me, pen and paper are my favourite tools for capturing the feel of spaces and objects.
Below is my Craft Documentation work , depicted through the sketches.
A stock of camel and sheep wool
This is a machine which clears the wool from the garbade. locally called as "Pindai machine".
This was another machine which performs the same function of separating the wool from the garbage.

Veterans have alwasy been an asset in propagating the Crafts of India.
Craftsmen whose dedication and hardwork is keeping the craft alive.
With feet and arms, the craftsmen take care of all the minute details which gives us an extraordinary felt rug.
From a brush to remove the unwanted material to using a hammer to apply more details to the fabric, Felt goes through a lot of manufacturing process.
This was a moulding machine which gives the felt a new look by creating different forms and shapes
Sheets of "Namdah"...
