Shweshwe

Shweshwe, ni kitambaa cha pamba kilichotiwa rangi kinachotumika sana katika mavazi ya kitamaduni huko Kusini mwa Afrika . Awali ilikua ni rangi ya indigo, kitambaa hiki hutengenezwa kwa rangi na miundo mbalimbali ya uchapishaji. ^[1] ^[2] ^[3] Kutokana na umaarufu wake, shweshwe imeelezwa kuwa ni denim, ^[3] au tartan, ya Afrika Kusini.

Jina la shweshwe limetokana na uhusiano wa kitambaa hicho na Mfalme wa Lesotho Moshoeshoe I, pia hutamkwa "Moshweshwe". Moshoeshoe alizawadiwa kitambaa hicho na wamisionari wa Ufaransa mnamo miaka ya 1840.

The designs are created using a discharge process, unlike modern printed fabrics where color is added to the surface. With Shweshwe, the cotton cloth is first entirely dyed, thoroughly penetrating the fiber. Then, the cloth is passed through copper design rollers, which emit a mild acid solution, removing color with pinpoint accuracy.
