Bags | |
.. |
Men made and wore shoulder bags. Some bags are knitted or crocheted, while others are produced by knotless netting or linking techniques with sprang-interlinked straps. Women do not use bags of this kind; instead, they wrap their possessions in carrying cloths or place them in pockets. The bag men use is rectangular in shape with straps attached to it. Sizes of bags vary and indicate function and town of origin. There are several Spanish words for bags: matate, bolsa, morral, and red. The latter means "net" and is used for carrying loads. |
