weaving
Our friend Deepak from Chepang gaun is weaving! Almost everyone, men and women, young and old, know how to weave in this village. They usually weave dokos and nanglos, for their everyday use. Weaving could be a very good opportunity for these really impoversished and marginalized people to generate income. But the lack of market and perhaps lacks of exposure to more contemporary designs has kept them on the fringes.
