Public libraries are a truly wonderful thing.

I found a book that I wanted to read, but the copy owned by my county library has gone missing. However, my local library ordered it for me on an inter-library loan and I picked it up today. It has come from a university library at the other end of the country.

I'm now going to curl up in a comfy chair and have a good read. I may be some time (I don't have to return it for 3 weeks)!

"On the northern edge of Los Altos, Mexico, is the municipality of Pantelh. With cities and villages situated in the valleys of tropical, mountainous terrain, Pantelh is also home to communities of Tzotzil-speaking Mayan artisans who weave distinctive, backstrap-loomed textiles. Their traditional huipil design features narrow, alternating stripes of red and white, decorated by multicolored bands of embroidery around the neckline and embroidered chevrons at the sleeves. Toads, stars, and other symbols are either woven or embroidered onto the stripes in vertical columns. Weavers of contemporary Pantelh blusas incorporate vibrant pinks, greens, purples, and other colors made possible by modern threads, creating some of the most distinctive textiles in Chiapas.
