UNDERSTANDING CLOTH

Reading cloth last week was very interesting, as we all were given  pieces of cloth, which were brought in from different places in Africa. The cloth we got was from Kenya, it was called 'mud cloth' a very interesting, different kind of fabric, in terms of feel, look, and the making of it.

when one sits down to read a cloth, its interesting to see how one sub divides the information that has to be found. As in, we question the cloth as to where, when, why and how this piece has been created.
I think a cloth also contributes in defining a person's nature, specially when it comes to typical traditional styles, which have been brought by 
 craftsmen.
