Our next stop on our road trip along the Mekong River is to visit another group of Tai Lue weavers.  This particular village of weavers is famous for its incredibly detailed patterns and vibrant colors.  Primarily, what was on display would be used for women’s “sarong” skirts.  These types of skirts would be considered to be on the more formal side and typically used for going to a Buddhist ceremony (at Temple).  Each garment piece shown in the pictures below takes a full month or more to make.
