'Each strand must overlap three times, Elena,' she explained without looking up. 'If you rush, the basket will collapse when filled with apples. True craft requires steady hands and a quiet mind.' Elena watched her grandmother's calm, rhythmic motion for a long moment before picking up her own bundle of grass." Which statement is BEST supported by textual evidence in the story?

Elena prefers weaving baskets to gathering apples in the orchard. Grandmother Rosa believes quality workmanship requires care and patience. Sweetgrass baskets are easy to weave in a short period of time. Elena has already mastered the basket-weaving technique.
