Kente Cloth

Kente cloth is made here in Ghana.  It is woven on a type of loom.  It is amazing to watch them make it - using both hands and both feet.  It can be made single, double or triple.  There are many different colors and designs.  It is made in strips about 8 inches wide or so and then sewn together to make larger pieces.  It is really beautiful and unique.
