Dark brown and off-white sash with long brown and off-white fringe with colourful tips. The fabric has a plaid pattern with squares of dark brown, off-white, and squares with a fine dark brown and off-white pattern. The rows alternate between rows of off-white and patterned squares, and rows of dark brown and patterned squares. The patterned squares are made up of a 6 by 6 grid of small squares with diagonal stripes, where the direction of the diagonal stripes alternates with each square which appears as a fine X or diamond pattern. The top horizontal row ends halfway up the squares. Most vertical rows have either one or two vertical lines up the centre of the squares, in off-white in the dark brown rows and dark brown in the off-white rows. The fringe is made up of dark brown and off-white strings, alternating with four strings in each row. The top row is half the height, so only has two strings. The strings are either dark brown or off-white, depending on the row colour. The fringe strings have short pieces of brightly coloured yarn tied around the knotted ends with a contrasting colour of yarn and white thread. The sets of dark brown and off-white strings are mostly finished with the same bright colour, a few are mixed.

Wasa watana (hair tie). A braided hair tie made in the combined techniques of oblique interlacing (brown threads) and oblique twining (white and red).

The other end of the hair tie has a tassel made of 4 bands (1 intersecting warp and one sewn on band).
Wasa watana (hair tie). A hair tie that is made in a mixture of techniques: oblique interlaced bands with zigzag embroidery for the main band and woven bands made in complementary warp weave that intersect with the main band. Each end has two intersecting bands, and two of those also have intersecting bands. Each end has three tassels made of three bands. Most of the secondary intersecting bands are braided. Combination of techniques used: braiding, weaving and embroidery.
