The white cotton yarns used to make this textile are only 0.1 to 0.2 millimeters in diameter.
Description
Chimú garments like this one consist of a large, rectangular central section—here measuring some 65 inches by 50 inches—with decorated tabs stitched to two opposite corners. Such garments probably were worn as turbans but we do not understand exactly how. For the purpose of display, the plain central section of this example has been folded to form a wide band, with the tabs arranged on either side.
