Toshila, from the Yimkhiung tribe of Old Showuba village in Nuiland district, Western Nagaland, is a fifth-generation weaver. She learnt the craft at the age of 15 from her aunt, continuing a family tradition passed down through generations. She works on the loin loom, a traditional waist-tied loom where the weaver’s body helps control the tension of the threads. Each piece is carefully woven and finished with handmade tassels, reflecting skill, patience, and cultural identity.

In Naga culture, indigo represents depth, calm, and connection to nature, while white symbolises purity, peace, and harmony. The patterns she creates include the zig-zag motif, which in Yimkhiung tradition represents the movement of rivers and the flow of life—symbolising adaptability, continuity, and resilience. Through her weaving, Toshila carries forward her tribe’s stories, heritage, and values, turning each textile into a living piece of cultural history.
