In a korvai saree the body and the border are woven from separate yarns and interlocked by hand at the join. It is the slowest way to make a Kanchipuram silk saree, and it is why the border meets the body in a clean line. The body is laid out in floral checks with circle butta, small round motifs, so the green reads as patterned from a distance and detailed up close.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou may know this weave as a Kanjivaram or Kanjeevaram saree, or as Kanchi pattu. The spellings differ by region; the silk from Kanchipuram's looms is the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWho it is for\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA bride choosing her muhurtham or reception saree, or a family member who likes a bright, confident green.
