Dalchhut

Dalchhut is a Hindko word, primarily used in the Hazara region of Pakistan, referring to a traditional type of thick, often felted, blanket or rug. These blankets are typically handwoven from sheep's wool and are known for their warmth, durability, and rustic aesthetic. Dalchhuts are often used as bedding, floor coverings, or shawls, especially during the cold winter months. The term can also be used to describe similar types of blankets made in other mountainous regions of the Indian subcontinent. The quality and price of a Dalchhut vary depending on the wool used, the complexity of the weave, and the size of the finished product.
