We should also mention the puppets, the traditional puppets spread in particular in Palermo and Catania since the mid-nineteenth century. Speaking of fabrics, typical is the frazzata of Erice, a technique with which rugs with brightly colored hand woven and decorated with recycled fabrics are still made today, while the parade is a type of Sicilian embroidery characteristic of the towns of Castiglione, Sortino and Vittoria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" src=\"http:\/\/italia-sumisura.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Fogarizzu_10s.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4497\" srcset=\"https:\/\/italia-sumisura.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Fogarizzu_10s.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/italia-sumisura.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Fogarizzu_10s-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/italia-sumisura.it\/mappa\/sardegna\/\">SARDINIA<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even Sardinia is no less.
