Artisan - Petrona Aurelia Gómez Hernández
Zinacantan
When I was a little girl, I remember watching my mother and grandmother weaving on their backstrap loom, and I loved how it was done, so when I finished elementary school, I learned how to knit until it became the job that generated money for me. With it, I was able to buy my things. When the pandemic came, it was a tough time because I was not selling anything, so we joined other people to contact new customers who made us occasional orders or designers paid us for the labor, but they were infrequent occasions, so I resorted to selling my work with resellers because I needed the money and sold my pieces at a low price.
