Bright colors distinguish this cheerful shoulder bag by Guatemala's Kaqchikel Women's Group. Working on a backstrap loom, they weave the red cotton fabric and add bands of green, beige, purple and beige. Black and white jaspe patterns accentuate the tote and are achieved by tie-dying the threads before they are placed on the loom. Lined in red, the purse features two outer pockets with zippers and a third pocket inside.
