Dr. Manik A.V. Bengeri of Mysuru commemorated the 75th year of India’s Independence in a novel way last month. Well-versed in the art of crochet, this septuagenarian decided to make use of her skill to not just exemplify her patriotism and salute our soldiers but also generate funds for the Army through her skill, in a small way.
So she herself crocheted items such as National Flags, key chains, badges, car hangars, garlands, wrist bands, rakhis — all in the colours of our National Flag and complete with the Ashoka Chakra.
