  1. Clothes Made Locally

    Share Share Post
    There are two tailors in my district. They work at their homes. The tailor does no stock cloth. The cloth is not spun in my districrt. The tailors use sisors, machine, thread, and thimbles.
    Shirts are not made locally.
    Thread is not spun. There are no spinning wheels in the district. People wear good clothes at weddings.
