Aarti lives in a small village near Lucknow, in a kuchha house where every rupee matters, and she proudly adds her Chikankari income to the household alongside her husband’s. She specialises in neat floral butis and small, tidy panels, working with steady, careful stitches that make her pieces easy to wear every day. For her, this craft is living proof that a skill, once learned, never sends you back empty-handed.
