Rural women artisans working with Jobarpar Enterprise use water hyacinth, a weed that chokes waterways throughout the country, to produce this paper. After soaking and pounding the fiber to make a pulpy mass, artisans add it to water and stir until it is smooth. Each large sheet of paper is made individually by lifting the pulp in a thin layer on a framed screen. The paper is placed in the sun to dry, after which it is ready for use in products such as this.
