Hassan The Carpet Weaver, India
S1 • E2 Nov 24, 1976
Hasan Gulam Dhar is a twelve-year-old carpet weaver. He lives in Narbal, a village in Kashmir. Hasan’s grandfather is a master craftsman who has carried on the family tradition of designing and weaving exquisite carpets for many generations. It looked like the family tradition would die, until Hasan began to learn carpet-weaving at the age of seven.
