Ghanaian Kente Cloth

Kente Cloth is local to Ghana, a country located in West Africa. Kente Cloth there was worn by royalty. It is hand woven in wooden looms and is of very high worth. It comes in a variety of patterns, colors and designs, each of which have different meanings. According to Ghanaian mythology, kente cloth was first created when 2 friends watched how a spider wove its web. By mimicking the actions of the spiders, they created Kente cloth the same way. This story, wether true or not, shows the harmony between Ghanaians and mother nature.

Here is the Kente tie of the Foso 4! Me and my 3 other TC's (mtc brothers/sisters) all had the same tie made and call ourselves the Foso 4.

This is a removable cover for my hymn book:)
