WEAVING PROCESS
In weaving, the warp thread and weft yarn are crossed over one another in a set method in
order to weave the required type of fabric. A machine designed to accomplish this task is called
a loom. First, the warp thread and weft yarn are prepared so that they can be set into the loom.
Warping Cheese/cones are set on a warping machine to wind the predetermined length and
number of yarns onto the predetermined number of warping beams under constant tension.
Sizing The warping beams of the required number of warps of the final textile are piled up for
rewinding on beams after sizing and drying.
Drawing-in to prepare for setting beams on a loom, warps are routed in the order of droppers,
healds and guide bars.
Weaving Prepared beams are set on a looming frame to weave a textile in the following five
motions:
1. Shedding: two groups of warps are opened to let the weft pass through.
3. Beat-up: Pushing the newly inserted yarn back into the fell using reed.
4. Let-off: The warp yarns are unwound from the warp beam.
Inspection/ Folding the fabric is inspected and folded. Imperfections are corrected as required.
The fabric is then graded.

II. B1. How do you describe the indigenous arts in the Philippines?
Answer:
Indigenous Art is the artwork created by the Indigenous people (the traditional people) who
come from the land.The artwork of indigenous people is important for students to experience
for several reasons. This creates a deeper sense of self and agency; giving each student the
power to express themselves in their voice. Students from all back grounds need to see
themselves represented in the art they experience.Indigenous visual arts provide a means of
cultural expression and are a vehicle for the maintenance and transmission of culture. The
visual arts are used to promote health and well-being. They improve the lives of Indigenous
women and provide self esteem to young Indigenous people.
Answer:
1. Abaca – This is one of the most popular raw materials that can be found here in the
Philippines. Also known as Manila hemp, Abaca fibers are used for making various products like
bags and slippers. Some Filipino-made espadrilles are decorated with Abaca.
2. Rattan – Familiar with the word? This material is often used in making furniture. In a typical
Filipino house, you will see a set of furniture made with rattan, a bamboo-like wood which is
more hallow and solid. These grow into hundreds of meters long.
3. Bamboo – This is a kind of grass (you heard it right) that’s used in making most of Filipino-
made furniture. Unlike Rattan, bamboo plants are more flexible and stronger. However, when it
comes to the weight, these are definitely heavier than Rattan. As for the price, bamboo are very
much affordable. On some provinces, every 5-meter bamboo can be bought for only 150-200
pesos.
4. Coconut Shells – If there’s one kind of tree that you can surely say “abundant” in this
country, it’s the Coconut tree. Aside from the tasty coconut fruit and strong planks of coco
lumbers that this tree produces, craftsmen also find use in Coconut shells. Various products are
being made out if this material such as coin banks, buttons, flower vases and lamp shades.
5. Fibers – Although this material can be produced be a variety of plants, there are chosen
plants that are known for producing good-quality fibers. Some of these plants are abaca,
banana, buri, pineapple and maguey. Fibers are used to in creating products like carpet, seat
pads, barong tagalog and mattresses.
