Apparel production student weaving together pattern making, merchandising and quality control from loom prototypes to production floors.
I'm a Bachelor of Fashion Technology student at NIFT Panchkula, focused on the production side of apparel, the part where ideas become garments. I've spent time inside a fabric processing unit, built my own working loom from scrap, and I'm endlessly curious about how things get made efficiently, sustainably and well.
Off the production floor, I'm teaching myself finance and admiring Japanese engineering - the JDM kind.
Studying apparel production - garment construction, pattern engineering, textile science, and the systems that scale a sketch into thousands of units.
Hands-on exposure to fabric processing operations - observing dyeing, finishing and quality workflows from grey fabric to finished goods.
Every garment is a kit of parts. Keep scrolling - the panels find their seams.
Designed and built a working, portable loom prototype entirely from recycled wooden material - then wove a fabric sample on it to prove the mechanism. A study in frugal engineering, sustainability and woven structure.
Textile science fundamentals, fibre to fabric, and first studio coursework at NIFT.
Built a portable wooden weaving loom from recycled material and wove a working fabric sample on it.
Two-week textile internship inside a fabric processing unit, dyeing, finishing and QC workflows.
Digital pattern making, grading and marker planning.
Target: a garment export house - line balancing, operation breakdowns and real production pressure.
A production-focused capstone. Topic loading… watch this space.
One hoodie, seven operations. Watch a garment travel the line — each station shows its SAM (standard allowed minutes).
This is a tiny digital version of my semester-2 loom. Pick a weft color and throw the shuttle, each pass weaves one row over the warp, just like the real thing.
Marker efficiency, visualised. Pattern pieces nest onto the fabric width to minimise waste, watch the lay plan assemble and the efficiency climb.
SPI checker. Stitches per inch decide seam strength and look. Slide to see the seam change - too few stitches and the seam grins open; too many and the fabric puckers.
Currently learning how money moves - markets, investing fundamentals, and the business side of fashion.
A deep appreciation for Japanese domestic-market machines - precision engineering you can hear. (Click this card. Trust me.)
If it can be built, prototyped or woven by hand, I'm probably already sketching it.
Open to internships, collaborations and conversations about production, textiles or torque curves.
Understand woven structure not from a textbook, but by building the machine that makes it — using zero new material.
Collected discarded wooden material and designed a compact, portable frame — sized to carry, sturdy enough to hold warp tension.
Cut, assembled and finished the frame by hand. Engineered warp spacing and a simple shedding approach for clean weft insertion.
Warped the loom and wove a small fabric sample — a working plain weave produced entirely on a machine built from waste.
Warp tension is everything. Frugal engineering forces better design decisions. And nothing teaches fabric structure like making fabric, slowly, by hand.
