Colonial women gathered to spin thread and weave cloth primarily as a means of self-sufficiency and to support the economic needs of their households. This communal activity fostered social bonds and strengthened community ties, allowing women to share skills and resources. Additionally, during periods of British taxation and restrictions on imported goods, such as the Townshend Acts, these gatherings became a form of protest against British policies, promoting independence and self-reliance.

It is not any bad to wear a weave but most people will find it suitable for old women.
The jobs that men and boys had in colonial times were mainly working on farm, fishing and hunting. As for the women, they went out to gather fruits t make food among other household chores.

yes there are many indigenous arts in Mountain Province such as thread and non thread weaving which we do in handicrafts... in thread weaving we use different colors of thread to make "tapis"( a wooven skirt use by women), "wakes"( a wooven belt use to hold the tapis around the waist), and "wanes"(a wooven g-string use by men), we also weave tela for blanket called "pinagpagan" that is use for occassions and for visitors... we also weave bags, dresses and made to order for export promotions of our products.. In non thread we do handicrafts using abacca from a banana plant, we are proud we raised abacca coming from Natonin, Mountain Province, which we makers buy and do handicrafts to make baskets, home decorations, gift items and souvenirs.
