Karakul \u2013 the most prized possession of every gentleman is the epitome of luxury in the world of caps. For years together, Karakul caps have been worn by the most elite of gentlemen on special occasions like public speeches or their weddings. In fact, the trousseau of a groom is incomplete without the addition of the Karakul.
\n The story behind the making of Karakul is in fact troubling but I once visited a slaughter house, where two workers were holding a pregnant ewe from the front and back, ready to be slaughtered. It was the kind of moment where you are terrified because there was something that was unsettling about the whole technique. The ewe was dropped onto the floor in the most merciless way, whilst she kept on squirming in agony, kicking her legs with a look of pain in her eyes. One worker controlled her body by stepping on it with his foot, perhaps to make her realize that this is the end for her. The butcher first slashed her throat with a long knife. The ewe kept wriggling and thrashing her legs with pain, her legs continuing to kick with eventually the movements slowing down. A stream of blood gushed down the floor. The butcher then twisted her head till it came off totally. The lifeless body was now taken and placed over a wooden structure. <\/p>\n
Forceful movements in the dead ewe\u2019s abdomen could be felt, which was the unborn lamb kicking, ready to start a life of his own, not knowing what his evil fate would be. But the heartless workers pushed the ewe\u2019s abdomen, many a times, in strong strokes, till there was no more movement. They had killed the fetus too! Now workers started to skin the sheep, and moments later tore open the uterus and to pull out the lamb, or the fetus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
