Once the cotton has been spun it is hand-dyed using plant based dyes - such as licorice root, tumeric bark, mango pulp and various other flora and fauna indigenous to their land.
The process of weaving the colored thread requires expert dexterity in order to create a consistancy of design .
Each scarf produced is unique in tone and texture and illustrates the artisans labour of love.
