The memory of Formigueiro gathers blankets, quilts, towels and blankets made of wool, linen and rags. The municipal guide links its sale to the fairs of São Miguel, in Cabeceiras, and Santa Luzia, in Arco de Baúlhe.
Following these fabrics is connecting the work within the village to the movement of people and goods. The report retains a commercial memory, not a list of current banks.
