Colourful Bilum - Neng Bucket Bilum

Colourful Bilum - Bucket Cross Body

• This bilum is hand-woven from acrylic and wool yarn using a traditional weaving technique.
•  The yarn is twisted by placing it on the weaver's thigh and is rolled in a backward and forward motion using hands.
• The twisted yarns are then hand-woven into  bilum bags. This process takes a few weeks.
• Bilums are very versatile and expandable.
• Each bilum has a story and the patterns are a visual language and authentic to the women who weave them.

Dimensions:

• 100cm shoulder strap
• 37cm high
• 26m wide

These bilums  help support the weavers and their families to have a stable income through our Project 2 Mile initiative.
