serape
This serape is made from two woven pieces joined together along their long sides, with an opening left for the head and neck. It is woven in such a way as to have small diamond patterns. The borders are dark brown while the body has small dark brown diamonds lined by the lighter material, with a dot in the center of each also of the lighter material. Appears to be wool. It is slightly frayed in some areas, due to past moth damage.
