The loom that María is using in your video is called a foot pedal loom or treadle loom. This type of loom is often referred to as a "telar de pie" in Spanish and is commonly used in Guatemala for weaving larger textiles. It's a traditional technique that dates back centuries and is powered by both hands and feet, making it a fully manual process without the use of any electricity and machines. It’s an incredible example of Mayan weaving heritage!
