He weaves on order, depending on the purpose for which the woven equipment is meant. Tea pickers, fish mongers, poultry keepers and crop growers are his regular clients and he also deals in granaries. With two children in school, Budi had to seek for an alternative and sought help from a friend. “Being a weaver himself, he offered to train me and that’s how I became an expert in weaving,” he says. Budi says that on a bad day he pockets about Sh800 and he can make as much as Sh2,000 on a good day.
