yea, arjuns video is for the side turla pagh, the one jvirk is talkin about had the front starched turla. I had the same problem last week, went to go look for it while we were practicing, and lo and behold...it was gone. I messaged the dude who had it up to see if he could put it back up....but no response.

The second video I have posted is for front turla (the link to gabroo.tv)

That GTV video is REALLY good...

but i didnt catch wat to do with the extra cloth after he tied the patti on? wat to do afterwards to cover the dude's hair/keep the turla upright? anyone want to explain?

do I just lift the larh that makes the flower, spread it out, & stuff the extra cloth underneath? (this is what i'm guessing)...

just curious...

yah the extra pagh goes directly behind the turla....makes it stand up straight, acts as a joorah...spread out the first larh n put it on top then pull on the end w/the phul to make it secure...maybe someone else cn give a better explanation

yeah thats basically it... after you tuck in the last larh and have shoved in the turla you just take the extra fabric and roll it into a ball and put it behind the turla. then pull up and open up the last larh (if you folded it right it will be easy to open up) and tuck it in around the open areas to cover the head just make sure to sufficiently get the fabric around the ball of fabric that is used to keep to turla in place so that it doesn't move. now pull down the first larh with the extra fabric hanging next to the left ear and then start the make the phul. making the phul is just like rolling a sock inside out.

hope this helps.

 

[rajkaran]

this is helping a lot...

if everyone doesn't mind, I've got a few more questions...

1) How much of the end of the pagh do you starch? wat's the best method to starch?

2) If we were to approach the paghs the way it's done in the San Jose Mela video, how do I do the pooni? Regular pagh way (taught diagonal ends and roll inward) or simple folding (1/2 folds)? More importantly, how do you do the pooni so that the ends are unfolded (for the turla and flower)?

any info would help

thanks in advance...

rajkaran,

i dnt kno how to describe the tieing part, but as far as starching n stuff

dont starch less than 8 inches...but dnt starch more than i wud say about 10 maybe?? 9 inches is perfect (in my opinion)

i use the method of "sta-flo" lol...sta-flo can be bought at your local walmart for about 3 bucks a bottle...i just pour it into a big bowl and dip the paggs and move em around in there (the thurla part only)...making sure the line is straight so it doesnt fluctuate the thurla (i.e. one part of the thurla is 9 inches and the others are 7 o r8 inches...has to be a straight line)

i just fold the pagh in halfabout 3-4 times always in the same direction. dont worry about the turla being folded cus its gonna come unfolded anyways after you tuck in the last year as there is about 12 inches of pagh left and then the turla. fold up the turla and then shove it in. use the extra material to put behind the turla to make the turla stand up vertically. for the phull (flower) part, just have the person hold the first larh at about chin level. then after you finished tying, just imagine the extra fabric is like a sock and just roll it inside out very tightly. hope this helps.
