On my (Laverne’s) visit with this family accompanying Kathleen in 2007, Luz’a granddaughter Catalina would help with de-seeding and teasing the cotton while grandmother, mother and aunt Trini would take care of the spinning and weaving process. On that same trip Ctalaina took a brief interest in learning to program the pattern warps but you can see her there in 2010 weaving a hammock on her own while 86-year old Luz sits by.
