Textiles? What do I know about Textiles?













Vanu, I think that's her name. It was tattooed on her arm. Anyway, she spoke English, which is useful, when you're in a remote village and you don't have any Indian language skills.

Here she's getting the thread ready for the weaving machine. I don't know what this is called. Something like the pre-weaving machine stage.

She and her husband, who was doing the weaving, were making table cloth type material.
