Naw pina or a baby shawl ... this is used to carry babies on the back ... babies are tied with help of the cloth with each of their feet peeping out from either side of person carrying ... and how lovely they look ....
Rao-ap poh or the scarf ... slung over shoulder by men on occassions ... a personal favourite ...
Hnopasy or the wrap around used by females ... recall it being referred to as dak'manda in Garo Hills ... used like a 'lungi' ... variety of patterns one comes across in these is absolutely stunning ~ simple ones - ones having borders - embroidered and more ... we even get some from burma !
This finally is a wall hanging piece ...
