Lamai
Lamai, who is now in her 70's is highly skilled in using traditional materials to make Northern Thai style bags and accessories. She is part of a local cooperative that collects fabric offcuts from nearby garment factories and uses a traditonal hand loom to transform the "waste" into a colourful and durable fabric. Born and raised in Chiang Mai, Lamai was one of seven children. Her parents made clothes for children using hand processed cotton from the family's cotton farm where Lamai learnt to transform silk and cotton using a hand loom.
