Traditional fabric from Zomba, Malawi brought to you by traveler Sarah Stephany.
"The fabric used for these backpacks is called a "Chitenje" in Malawi. You can find chitenjes at almost every market in Malawi because they have so many different purposes for daily life there. Many women and children wear them as skirts, dresses, or on their heads to help balance baskets and buckets. They are also used as wraps for carrying babies on their back. Chitenjes come in all colors and have a variety of pictures, designs, and patterns to choose from!" —Sarah Stephany
