Backstrap Weaving-Sitting at my loom and Salasaca strawberries. » sitting guate

Most weavers I saw in Guatemala knelt to weave. This position is impossible for me to maintain for more tha 5 monutes and so I wouls sit with legs outstretched for my lessons with Lidia. When Lidia once tried to sit and weave in my position, she just fell about laughing!
