Female Cloth
A married woman officially wears two pieces, the second one being a sign of motherhood.
"A complete NYONUVO (female cloth) is two pieces of the same cloth, each stitched with 12 to 14 strips, measuring about two yards by two and half yards (NYONU: woman + AVO: cloth)."
(
Ewe Glossary of Handweaving).
