During the needs assessment for the handicraft development project, we found all kinds of novelties we’d never seen before. One of them was a little yurt. This guy was made of yarn and included all of the elements of a yurt in miniature. The woman was able to erect it in a minute! (Imagine using this sucker to teach your classroom about Central Asian life!)
