- There are no tailors in this district but there are some - people who make their own clothes. They make them by machine or by hand.
They can make frocks and they can also knit socks. They do not spin the wool - themselves as they buy it in the shop. When there is a wedding most of the people wear grey clothes. After a person dies the people wear black clothes which is a sign of mourning.- Collector
