Exotic Handloom Garments

The handloom is the most antique and essential tool for Ecuadorian indigenous communities that has been in use for many years to create a great variety of textiles and garments sold at town markets. Using a handloom is not a simple task since the material used is first positioned in a certain order, thread by thread, to create desired patterns and color combinations; taking up to three days just to prepare the loom.
