Bo is the youngest of 10 siblings in a large, joyful Karenni hill tribe family. She was a teacher in the refugee camps before she married her husband, Poe. Bo and Poe are both working at housekeeping jobs while caring for their four children. Bo enjoys weaving, but her spare time for the craft is limited.

If you own one of Bo’s bags (or simply want to send a message), please feel free to write her a note in the comments below. We will share them with her. Eventually, we’d like every artisan to be able to write you back on her own.
