A dance sling (wichi wichi) consisting of a main braid with tassels at one end and five secondary braids with tassels that are attached to the main braid; all are solid braids. The pattern of diamonds in shades of brown, black, and grey on the solid braids is called “amapolas”, which is the name for a poppy that grows on the banks of rivers. The tassels at the end of the braids follow the same pattern of three small tassels, followed by one big tassel that branches out into smaller braids finished with tassels of their own. The tassels are in varying shades of red, brown, yellow, blue, green, and purple. Opposite to the tassels, the larger braid terminates at a small vestigial cradle worked in the same yarn with a triangular motif. Continuing with the same colours, a small solid braid with a chevron motif extends from the other side of the cradle.
