There is no automation of textile weaving in Timor. All of the implements used to create these masterpieces are handmade, from the cotton gins to the looms, to the spindles and dolli the men of Timor carve these works of art to enable the weaving women and men of Timor to produce these works of art.
On rare occasions I am offered balls of hand-spun cotton and offer them to you here.
