Stripes underlie all pattern in weaving, as horizontal wefts are laid in one on top of another to form a textile that will hold its structure when removed from the loom. This detail view shows the three different patterns of stripes that make up this design: wide background stripes of dark and light green and wider and narrower stripes of the bright foreground colors, repeated in a syncopated rhythm.
