The tradition of carpet weaving in India is centuries old. Pithoragarh (Uttarakhand) was selected as locale of the study because carpet weaving is more concentrated here as compared to other centres because a large number of Bhotia people are living here. They have inherent talent of knotting of carpets which is passed through generations. These carpets are limited to the state market only because weavers were not having knowledge about the carpet finishing. Moreover, they were following the same carpet designs since many generations. Therefore, in the present study training module was developed and training was imparted to the carpet weavers of Pithoragarh to prepared the carpets with better finish.Apart from this as carpet weavers were following the same designs since generations, they were encouraged to create new designs. Carpet designs were developed by researcher using Corel Draw 12 software. These designs were shown to the weavers to make them aware of new carpet designs. Weavers were encouraged to create and practice new carpet designs.
