[Photograph 9: Yarn Dyeing]<br />
Dyeing is done for both cotton and silk yarn. Either it is done while they are in the hank<br />
form or after the warp is ready. Vat, Naphthol, Direct and Reactive dyes are all used.<br />
5.4 Yarn Opening for weft as well as warp:<br />
After dyeing, the yarn is normally received by the weavers in the form of bundles. Both<br />
in the case of the weft and the warp, the thread needs to be freed from the tangles and<br />
stretched in order to make it tighter. Then, these are taken through a process of reeling<br />
by using a charkha and thus the bundles of thread are converted into small rolls of<br />
thread.
