  11. Oh what a feast for the eyes. Those lovely red yarns against the blue of the sky, and the saffron fabrics straight from the dye pot I presume. Is there any special significance to the strings of brightly coloured fabric balls? They are delightful. You must go away more often!! Thankyou for sharing your wonderful photos.
