Ixchel wants to follow in the long tradition of weaving on backstrap looms, just as her mother, grandmother, and most Mayan women have done for more than two thousand years but there is not enough extra thread for Ixchel to practice with. As she walks around her village, Ixchel finds it littered with colorful plastic bags. Suddenly, Ixchel has an idea! She collects and washes the plastic bags. Then she cuts each bag into thin strips. Sitting at her loom, Ixchel weaves the plastic strips into a colorful fabric that looks like a beautiful rainbow-just like the weavings of Mayan women before her.
