Batik

Indonesia is famous for it's beautiful Batik handiwork. So, we went to Yogyakarta (pronounced Jogjakarta) one day to see these ladies making Batik material in the traditional way. They dip their little needles in the bowl of wax beside them and draw on the designs. You can see some of the finished Batik material in front of them. Beautiful work!
