The word "Shawl" and most people instantly think of Kashmir; the shawl and Kashmir are synonymous; and rightly so, for the finest of Indian shawls have always come from here. Wool itself has a long tradition in India, judging from the copious references in ancient literature and texts. According to legend, woollen cloths were the creation of Brahma, a fabric so pure that it was deemed worthy for use as a prayer mat or asan and for use in religious rituals. Wool in Sanskrit was called urna and rankavu, and give the nuanced precision of the language, the terms could not have been interchangeable. Though both were used generically, we can gather from descriptions that the former had a coarser texture than the latter. Perhaps the term rankavu came from the rang or grangu sheep whose fleece was soft and fine. Kambal was another word used for wooollen cloth, though its meaning derived from the kamblya or weight of wool required to make a specific length. It was an era in which wool was from the fleece or hair of various animals.In earlier times, the shawl was essentially a male garment and the gift of a woollen shawl was a mark or respect.

In the Indian tradition, saints, sages and teachers were honoured with presentation of a shawl, and till today the master craftsmen of India are publicly draped with them as a sign of national homage of their art. The dasturs or priests of the Parsi Fire Temples wear a woollen shawl around their waist on ritual occasions; and the priest of Hindu temples offered shawls to princes and benefactors as a token of their blessings. In the triabl areas of the North East, honoured guests were presented with the finest examples of local craftsmanship. In royal courts, kings gifted shawls to their nobles as a mark of favour; and the exchange of costly shawls between rulers was part of ceremonial protocol.
