This is a very expensive style of weaving in Nigeria, we call it "Aso Ofi".
It looks difficult when doing it because I have been to where it's been done before, lots of threads are used and the movement of the workers hand is quite fun to watch.
You are into making clothes already so this shouldn't cause issues.

I love to see some photos of Aso Ofi. That sounds interesting!!
This is what it looks like and there are lots of images of it online. It is a traditional wear.
Thank you. Beautiful!!!
I found an article on the technique. The product looks wonderful! And they are large looms. Hopefully, people will get interested to learn so the knowledge does not get lost!
