Inabel is a handwoven fabric made by

Ilocanos which is more popularly known as “Abel
Iloco”. It comes from the root word “abel” which
means “to weave”. The word Inabel of Ilocanos
literally means “woven”. It is created by skilled
artisans using traditional wooden looms. It comes
with different patterns inspired by nature. One of the
most recognizable patterns of Inabel is Binakol (also
known as binakel, binakael, or binakul).

Binakol (meaning “twill”) can be easily

recognized by its interlocked geometric patterns
which represent the waves of the sea that protects
people from malevolent spirits.
The inabel designs are inspired by natural
elements: patterns that depict different landforms,
the colors of fowers and vegetation, plaid, zigzag,
animal patterns, the ocean waves or the glittering
night sky.

Kain is the basic dress for women of

Cordillera region. It is a type of wrap-around skirt
(tapis in Tagalog) characterized by horizontal stripes
bordered by decorated panels along the joins and
edges, uses bright colors especially fiery red and
embroidered with beads and shells. Some kain used
other colors like red, yellow, white, black and green
which signify the color of things in nature.

Kadangyan is a burial cloth for the rich

people of Mountain Province. It is a Cordilleran term
which literally means “rich”. In earlier days, only the
grandmothers were allowed to weave burial cloths
(Kadangyan) but now, any able weaver is allowed to
weave burial cloths for the dead.

The handwoven fabrics of Bontoc are

characterized by different geometric shapes and

I. MOST ESSENTIAL TAKE-AWAYS (METs)

Today, I have learned that:
● Arts and crafts help us recognize the distinctiveness of a certain culture. They show the kind of living, the
resources available in a particular region, the beliefs and traditions and the artistry and imaginative minds
of the people in different places.

● The arts and crafts of the highlands and lowlands of Luzon are composed of weaving in which they
used pinya cloth to be woven into tapestries, and other garments.

● The ifugaos make the lingling-o which symbolizes fertility. They carve the Bul-ul, a representation of their
ancestor spirits, in their rituals. They practice tattooing as a part of their rich culture and traditions.

● The arts and crafts of Luzon depict the rich culture and traditions of the Filipinos. The textiles produced in
every province signify their culture based on how it was made. The materials, the techniques, and the
symbols used in these arts and crafts have their own cultural and traditional significance.
