How did they learn to do it?
Ofelina was able to learn how to make all the crafts thanks to her relatives, who made them and put her to work together with them, that way she developed her interest and perfected the design.
How do you do the activity?
In the case of the chacaras, if you do it with pita thread or cabuya, you must extract the thread, which is a process that takes a week to later be able to manufacture them. For the dresses and shirts what he does is buy the fabrics, cut the pieces and then work on the sewing of all the clothes he will do. The bags are made of fabric, they do the same work as for dresses and shirts.
