PENDEZA WEAVING

An interesting to visit is Pendeza Weaving where you can buy
many articles of clothing, table cloths, matts, rugs, etc that
are all woven on these old style looms.
The owner showed us how he uses the
SPINNING WHEEL
to make silk, cotton, ans wool threads to use in the weaving.
He showed how to thread the threadontol spindle for the
machines so use.

His granddaughter had a ball
and played with Brynna as we were taught.

 In a small room we saw three treadle sewingmachines where the
clothing items were sewn and other items hemmed when needed.

MASAI MARKET

After the weaveers we went to the local
MASAI MARKET
where we bought several souveniers.
Hellen always helps us get a good price for what we are intrested in buying.

This was another great day!~!
