On our way to Bikaner we stopped in a village and went into the home of a family who generate their own wool, yarn and fabrics.
They take the wool from their sheep and camels, spin this into yarn, dye it, weave it on hand looms creating fabrics, and then create products such as shawls. They then sell these to the local cooperative who are then able to sell it on.
Evidently Bikaner is the largest wool producing area in Asia.
They also made us some millet roti which are eaten there with s small curry- it was delicious.
