Weaving a livelihood
The Hindu
Restarting an old hobby not only brought out the artiste in S. Sathya, but also helped her family ride out a difficult phase. In April last year, Sholinganallur resident Sathya lost her job as a nursery worker. With her son Pughazhendhi’s mobile, she watched online tutorials on basket-weaving, a skill she had picked up at school and she was learning all over again.
In no time, she learnt how to make customised wire baskets in three to four days. The bag-making skills helped her make ends meet.
