Inside: giant wrought iron machines were brought here by boat from Europe, then shipped over the mountains in pieces by train before being reassembled here. Many are dated from the 1800's. Can you see us on the left?
After the cotton is cleaned and carted and hand-dyed, its spun into thread and wrapped onto spools here.
Thread is then loaded onto these wooden hand-looms to make rugs, bed spreads, curtains or wall hangings.
Here is one example of the beautiful finished product.
