The skill OF the Zulus OF South Airics
in sewing iur is . household word IN
South Africa, and some OF the other tribes
com pete with them. The needle emp Dyed
is widely different from that used by The
ordinary needlewomen. In the first place
il has no eye, 10 the second. it is like .
skewer. pointed at one cod and thick at
the other.
The tbrt ad is not Of cotton, but is made
OF the sinews iu the Ieck Of girHfs. 1t
is stiff, 10 elastic, with q great tendency to
"kiuk" and tsngle itieli up With anything
nesr it. Before being used ii is stesped
in hot water until 1t is Quilted soft and is
then beaten between to smooth stones,
which causes it to separate into filsments,
which can thus be obtained OF any length
and thickness. Thus the sesmstress has .
considerable amount OF labor before she
she com meuces the real work 10 hand.
Finally she fqusts on the ground Tor no
native stands 10 work or do anything else
who can possibly help ~ and, taking her
needle, bores two holes in the edges OF The
rug or garment on which she is working.
The thread is then pushed through with
the butt OF the needle, drawn tight. and
two mere holes are made With like re
sult, the skewer progressing very slowly,
but fast enough for country where time
is OF no value whstever.
The skin upon which the seamstress lie
working is dsmpened with water before
she commences, and ss the damp thread and
hide dry out they bring the work very
closely together.
