The threads used in the fabrics are also made manually on a spinning wheel with natural wool fibers, the wool goes through a pre-wash to be able to remove all the fats with a natural detergent. Later it goes through a process of carding the wool to remove impurities in this process the wool is combed until it is soft and ready to transform it into threads. The raw threads in their natural color are white, black, light gray and dark gray. The dyeing of the colors to obtain different shades is done with natural pigments, red cochineal for the red, orange or cherry color. This pigment changes the tonality depending on the fixative that is put on it.
