The Dhaka Muslin: a fabric that felt like woven air

article image placeholderThe ancient fabric that no one knows how to make
I had heard about this muslin from my grandfather, who told me that an entire DACA muslin sari could be fitted into a Matchbox, though now I know he had probably exaggerated. The muslin stayed on in my memory for years. I decided to look for more about it and came across this interesting article which talks about how the muscle in once celebrated was also wiped out of the face of the Earth by its very corn as well
