Sitalpati are made from cane or from murta plants, known in different places as {{transl|bn|mostak}}, {{transl|bn|patipata}}, {{transl|bn|patibet}} and {{transl|bn|paitara}}. The murta plant grows around water bodies in [[Sylhet]], [[Sunamganj]], [[Barisal]], [[Tangail]], [[Comilla]], [[Noakhali]], [[Feni District|Feni]] and [[Chittagong]]. Nakshi pati made of murta plants is available only in [[Sylhet]] and [[Noakhali]] districts of Bangladesh. In India, Sitalpati is made in the northern [[Cooch Behar]] district of the state of [[ West Bengal]]. Among the areas of Cooch Behar where Sitalpatis are woven, Sagareswar, Ghugumari and Pashnadanga are important centres. <ref>{{Cite web|url=https://asiainch.org/craft/sitalpati-mat-weaving-of-west-bengal/|title = Sitalpati Mat Weaving of West Bengal – Asia InCH – Encyclopedia of Intangible Cultural Heritage}}</ref> <br />
