    Ilocos
    The Ilocos Region is located in
    the northwest of Luzon, bordering
    the regions of the Cordillera
    Administrative Region, Cagayan
    Valley, and Central Luzon.

    It is composed of provinces, namely: Ilocos norte,


    Ilocos Sur, La Union, and Pangasinan.
    A. Inabel
    Abel in Ilocano
    refers to the
    process of weaving
    while inabel is the
    final woven product
    made from cotton
    and other natural
    fibers.
    A. Inabel

    Inabel undergoes beating


    the cotton balls or
    binatbatan using bamboo
    sticks to separate the seeds
    during the initial stage.

    These traditional threads are dyed from the sap


    of the black plum called sagut.
    vigan
    Vigan is unique for having
    preserved much of its
    Hispanic colonial
    character, particularly its
    grid street pattern and
    historic urban lay out.

    It is considered as the best preserved example


    of a planned Spanish colonial town in Asia
    established in the 16th century.
    B. Burnay Pottery
    Another industrial craft practiced in the
    western part of Vigan is the craft of
    making earthenwares or burnay
    jars/pottery.
    B. Burnay Pottery
    During the old times, burnay
    jars were used for tea
    drinking and as containers
    for salt, brown sugar, water,
    local wine basi, and bagoong
    (fermented fish). Nowadays,
    people buy them as
    decorations in their gardens
    and homes.
    pangasinan
    Pangasinan is located
    on the western area of
    Luzon along the
    Lingayen Gulf and the
    West Philippine Sea.

    The name Pangasinan means “place


    for salt” or “place of salt-making”.
    Another name for the
    region is “Caboloan”.
    The word bolo refers to
    the bamboo species
    abundant in the interior
    areas of the province
    and favoured material
    to use to weave light
    baskets and winnowing
    plates called bilao.
    Another famous crafts
    include the smoothly
    weaved bolinao mats
    made from buri or raffia
    leaves, the bamboo
    crafts of San Carlos,
    bagoong, and the tasty
    tapang bangus.
    Bolinao mats or banig
    These are simple hand-woven mats usually
    used in several Southeast Asian countries
    like Philippines for sleeping. They are
    created by dyeing strips of buri which are
    woven to produce a design.

    industry. It has its own bamboo market
    where bamboo products like nipa huts,
    baskets, lamp shades, furniture and
    cabinets are on display.
    La Union
    La Union is bordered by Ilocos
    Sur to the north, Benguet to
    the east, Pangasinan to the
    south and to the west by the
    shores of the South China Sea.
    It is known for its well-crafted
    dalikan or cooking stove
    traditionally handmade by
    locals. It is also known for its
    soft broom industry made of
    natural corn fibers that are
