Traditional Handicrafts, Bansko, Blagoevgrad, Bulgaria.
Many stalls can be found in the cobbled streets of Bansko where ladies are selling their beautifully crafted handiwork.
This photograph shows one such lady who has spent many hours crafting handmade rugs, socks, hats and bags. Local women set up stalls with their brightly coloured crafts for sale in all weathers, sometimes wrapped warmly up in one of their own creations to protect them from the bitter cold.
Carpet making in Bulgaria can be dated back as far back at the 9th century and the various patterns and decorations can vary according to districts.
