Mikir Tribe, or the Karbi Tribe, is also identified as a major indigenous group in Assam, located almost entirely within the Karbi Anglong district. Renowned for its magnificent textile traditions and intermingling with rich heritage and nature, the tribe exhibits its older cultural values with traditional blankets made from Endi cloth famous for warmth, durability, and austere beauty-the very significant item. Endi cloth such types of Endi cloth are manufactured on excellent quality Endi silk (Eri silk), locally found and hand woven by Karbi women. "Eri silk" is known both for its warmth and soft texture and also provides a great credit for its non-violent manufacturing principle such that the farmer worm moth is allowed to come out of the cocoon unharmed. So this silk is therefore sustainable and ethical, best suited to the people ethic of tribal harmony with nature.

The blanket consists merely of two pieces of Endi cloth stitched lengthwise: one half of the blanket features an appealing pattern composed of off-white and maroon-colored stripes, creating a rustic yet elegant appearance. The other is kept plain, thereby flaunting the natural texture and a soft sheen of the Endi silk. The simplicity and contrast in design reflect a comfortable, yet aesthetic approach of the tribe. Endi cloth being a blanket is, thus, a very practical item with many endearments for the Mikir/ Karbi people and often bequeathed over generations. It is a domestic object having uses as clothing but more importantly as a statement of cultural identity, and the traditional skills of Mikir Tribe. Today, it is also used as ceremonial objects.
