Nafana mat weaver (deŋglɛ tinfun) Alexander Owusu finishes the foundational pass in weaving a raffia mat (dɛŋglɛ). He holds the working edge in his left hand as he prepares to grasp the last warp strand between his right thumb and forefinger, after which he will fold it inward, downward and to the left in the final move of this weaving pass. Description reference: Table 2, No. 13 in "Making of a Raffia Palm Mat (Dɛŋglɛ), Sabiye, Banda District, Bono Region, Ghana." Sabiye, Banda District, Ghana.
