About this product

Product Information

The story of shweshwe is about shweshwe cloth, including what it is, some details of its history in South Africa, and how it is made. The book takes the reader on a journey with this special cloth. It explains how the cloth was brought to South Africa by traders and how it got its name. Then it gives details on how cotton is picked from the fields, woven in factories, dyed, and how acid rollers are used to print patterns on it. Steps are given on how to identify real shweshwe and the THREE CATS brand, along with new colors and examples of what the cloth is used for, including the world of fashion and patchwork quilts. Each chapter has pictures with captions, such clothes made from shweshwe, King Moshweshwe and the manufacturing process. The Made in South Africa series is a set of seven books about things that are proudly made in South Africa. Follow our Facebook page for the latest news and updates on this and other series.

Product is 95% alike picture but a little more blurry. Controller play well but had a notice from psn that my joypad wasn't authentic and could by problematic🤷‍♂️ no trouble so far! Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
