“I spent a week, learning five hours a day from a Karen girl named Si Si Paw, to weave this piece. Sitting on the wooden floor of a hut, I crafted it using Karen weaving tools. If you look closely, you might spot a few small mistakes I made along the way. Si Si Paw and I chose the colors and pattern together. We kept it simple enough for a beginner like me to master.”
