Ethioinfo media - Interview with Designer Birtukan Worku. Planner Birtukan reacted to the debate of The Ethiopian Flag-themed Gabi. Gabi is a carefully assembled fabric worn by Eritreans and Ethiopians. It is worn over the shoulders and chest area and is made from cotton. Not at all like the two-layered Kuta (worn by men) and Netela (worn by ladies), it comprises of four layers. All kinds of people can wear it. More often than not, the older wear it.

The netela has just two layers and is very large, estimating around 63 x 102 inches. It's white with a brilliant boundary (tibeb) between 1 to 2 creeps at each end with two varieties, one has just one tone and the second can have many tones and examples.

The netela can be worn in various ways. For general wear, the netela covers the back and bears, and the line is collapsed up over the right shoulder, yet for chapel exercises, the two layers of the netela are opened and the boundary goes over the two shoulders. At the point when the line is worn around the face or shoulders, it's an indication of grieving, yet for amusement or resting the line goes over the left shoulder.

There are different materials like the netela. There is one called fota, which is substantially more bright with an element of 58 x 105 inches. It generally has a checkerboard plan and it is a medium-weight material that is worn essentially folded over the shoulders or over the head like a wrap.
