One shuttle at a time, between the warp of home and the weft of the city.

Thoi's family weaves phanek traditional sarongs on handlooms; her scholarship to Imphal for a sociology degree feels like walking a tightrope between home and future. She worries the monsoon damp will ruin the month's yarn, and her small joy is the weight of a finished roll, smelling of starch and earth.

starch still on my fingers from this morning’s warp, I stopped by Khuman Lampak after the sociology lecture. The boxers’ rhythm on the heavy bags had the same steady *thup-thup* as our loom heddles — but there, the tension is all force, no give. Makes me wonder: when we talk about ‘sports infrastructure’ in the valley, whose patterns get funded and whose get patched with old bicycle tubes?
