Makataone Master The Weaver

 Makataone is a Niuean lady who is the best at weaving. She comes from Alofi, a village in Niue .She can weave anything she likes: baskets, hats and place mat. Makataone and her husband moved to New Zealand in the late 1940s. I think weaving is important to Makataone because it is a part of her identity. What I enjoyed about the clip was how she likes to weave and has a talent that is unique.
