While I was in Cusco, feeling a little sorry for myself, as I nursed my blisters, I saw a lady cross the street from the Plaza de Armas. She was carrying a canvas \u003cspan class=\"il\"\u003etote\u003c\/span\u003e bag from my local bookshop back in London.  Daunt books is one of the few remaining old fashioned style bookshops, with wooden shelves and mezzanine floors illuminated by a leaded skylight, in London and is a place of peace and refuge in the busy city. The bag gave me the confidence to smile and a conversation soon ensued and before I knew it a friend was made. These canvas \u003cspan class=\"il\"\u003etote\u003c\/span\u003e bags have intrigued me ever since I have spotted them in New York and Nevis. So I set about discovering where and who had made them.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRe-wrap produces high-quality, hand-made organic cotton \u003cspan class=\"il\"\u003etote\u003c\/span\u003e bags. The bags are made in rural communities in India. Many of the women who sew the bags come from marginalised sections of society and re-wrap train them in traditional sewing skills to help them gain economic independence. Re-wrap have also built partnerships with farmers who grow Seed-to-Shop cotton from which the bags are made, investing in them along the way. The entire process is kind to the environment and kind to people.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSelvedge has worked with Re-wrap over the last year to develop the design for the Selvedge \u003cspan class=\"il\"\u003eTote\u003c\/span\u003e. Our bags have finally arrived and we are delighted with the result. They are stylish roomy and a great way to avoid single use plastic.  With a handy inside pocket that is perfect for a phone or a purse. They have sturdy handles and come in a choice of six \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003echeerful \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003edesigns taken from our most popular covers over the last fifteen years. In time I hope the Selvedge \u003cspan class=\"il\"\u003etote\u003c\/span\u003e will become a symbol of our community and an invitation to share stories.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePolly Leonard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFounder of Selvedge Magazine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Selvedge Magazine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47392819577067,"sku":"SELVEDGETOTE34","price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1395\/5787\/files\/Regular_tote_romance.png?v=1769788696","url":"https:\/\/www.selvedge.org\/products\/the-selvedge-tote-issue-34-romance-pre-order","provider":"Selvedge Magazine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
