Weaving textiles in San Sebastian had not changed much during the past 200 years. The fabrics are spun, dyed, and woven on foot powered looms. The shops carry a wide variety of products from purses, belts, placemats, tablecloths, hammocks, and blankets. The weavers bright sense of color and design make these treasures hard to resist.
