#Adinkra is a traditional African fabric made by stamping or printing largely using local materials such as dye from plant extracts and stamps carved out of plant sources. Originally the cloth used for making Adinkra was hand-woven with hand-spun thread, woven on a Kente-style loom. This has all changed now and a mix of fabrics are used in making it. With new symbols and designs introduced regularly, Adinkra has become a dynamic phenomenon and lives on from generation to generation.
