              <text>Both on the island and in "the States," many working women found jobs in textile mills and garment factories to support themselves and add to their family incomes. Poorer women took in piecework at home, and were often involved in the labor-intensive production of handmade garments that only the wealthy could afford. Needlework of all kinds-knitting, crocheting, and embroidery-and the use of sewing machines were seen as a material way for a young girl to help support her family.</text>

              <text>Tanto en la isla como en "los Estados", muchas mujeres buscaban trabajo en las industrias textiles y f√°bricas de indumentaria a fin de contribuir con su propio sustento y el de sus familias. Las mujeres m√°s pobres se llevaban el trabajo a la casa y a menudo formaban parte de la mano de obra intensiva que requer√≠a la producci√≥n de vestimenta hecha a mano, la cual s√≥lo los ricos pod√≠an costear. Todo tipo de costura -tejido, crochet y bordado- se consideraba como un modo material mediante el que una joven pod√≠a colaborar con el sustento de la familia.</text>
