The final variety of ikat decorated women's wrapper cloth found in Igara is this striped design with white machine spun thread on an indigo hand spun ground. Lamb & Holmes 1980 page 206 illustrate an identical piece collected in Ekiti, though as yet we have not found any of the Yoruba version ourselves. In excellent condition, dates to circa 1960s.
