Gold weaving

It is still miserable weather here, wind is howling and you can taste the dust!!
So made a quick stop at the Gold weaving!!
There are 4 ladies who weave gold threads using their hands. They make gold edging for Thobes or abayas. It is amazing watching them and their hands in action. I just liked this pic of the oldest of the ladies. Her hands looked so old and sore!
Here is a pic showing them all sitting there weaving and the band they are weaving is on the lady on the right's lap.
