PESHAWAR, Pakistan, Feb. 27 (Xinhua) -- Woolen threads for traditional shawls flutter at craftsmen's fingertips when they are thinking about the pattern and color of the work of art to be made at a workshop in Pakistan's Peshawar.

Woolen shawls are popular among Pakistani people in winter. These products have a distinct cultural style and are one of the major exports of Pakistan, helping local people to increase their employment and income.
