Pink and Black Aso Oke

Modern woven Pink and Black Aso Oke fabric hand woven in Nigeria

A bold and modern pink and black aso oke fabric.

Aso-Oke (pronounced ah-SHOW-kay) is short for Aso Ilu Oke which means cloth from the up-country. It is a hand loom, woven cloth made mostly by the Yoruba people of south-west Nigeria. It is of a similar tradition to woven Kente cloth from Ghana and is woven in strips which are traditionally sewn together to make clothing.

It is a thick fabric which is similar in texture to denim or canvas. As a result, this makes it a great choice for upholstery projects, cushions, totes, bags and more. Additionally, it works well as a trim for larger projects.

The width of the strip is 7 inches (18 cm) and you can order the length of the fabric strip you require by using the arrows above to specify quantity. Your fabric will be sent as one continuous length.

You also have the option of buying a half bundle which is 8 metres or the full bundle of 16 metres which will give you a saving compared to buying by the metre.

You can then cut and sew together the pieces for your own specific needs. Use pinking shears and cut across the width of the material. Avoid cutting along the length of the material as the weave will unravel.
