'My parents started out as farmers and then learned to weave. I started to help them when I was 12 years old,and that's how I eventually learned too. One of the most beautiful aspects about my craft is when a client asks me to create a new design. I enjoy doing the research,making the trial samples,imagine the finish product,think of color combinations,and carrying out the new design.' What is Worldstock?
