Omg!!! I had no clue this tedious work was involved in the making of these cloths. I salute these gentlemen for their patience and skills. Just amazing. I'm definitely sharing this video with several people.

@AzeezGaniu-sm9mg

As a person who crochets I have been looking for an African technique that I can transition to. I am no where near skilled enough to weave like these men but I am still searching.
