AFRICA BY DESIGN | Kofa Mata Dye Pit, Kano Nigeria
Established in 1498, Kofar Mata Dye Pit is perhaps the continent’s oldest secret. Over the centuries, expertise of indigo dying has sat with and been managed by generations of the same family. Fabrics are dyed in pits below ground in solutions made from mixtures of water, ash and dried indigo twigs. Film credit: Faith Ilevbare
