“La urdimbre y la trama son de algodón hilado en fábrica, tejido en telar de cintura en dos lienzos, en ligamento sencillo con una línea de tejido en curva hilada a mano con malacate. Ambos lienzos se bordaron con lana hilada a mano, teñida al parecer con tintes naturales y sintéticos.” (Alejandro de Ávila, 2015)
