Kente cloth is one of Africa’s most celebrated textiles. Kente is woven in long narrow bands. Finished strips are cut to the same length and sewn together to produce a large cloth. Kente’s bold and colourful patterns are intricately woven; each design and finished cloth has a name and a meaning. Contents include warping up, weaving on two heddles, weaving on four heddles, Ashante Kente designs, Ewe weaving at Agbozume, and Ewe weaving at Sogakofe. Filmed in Ghana. 48 min.
