content: Two strips of cotton handwoven (and handspun?) fabric. Warp-predominant plain weave with paired wefts. Warp stripes in white, black, and beige, and weft stripes in black and beige, creating a plaid pattern. Unfinished ends. The pattern on the two strips is identical, and appear to have been cut from the same cloth
