Indigenous African: Kitenge Cloth


This fabric may look simple to the ordinary eye, but it's packed full of religious and political meanings. It's similar to Kanga featured yesterday but thicker.
Popular in East Africa, Kitenge is also known as Chitenge in Malawi, Namibia, and Zambia.
They are inexpensive and come in huge variety of colours and patterns.
This fabric print is done by a traditional batik technique.
Anyone has this? Please share!
