About this fabric
An ulos is read through its horizontal bands: wide dark fields interrupted by fine red and gold lines, closed at both ends by panels of triangular motifs. A 230 gsm cotton with a dense weave, so the cloth feels solid and is not at all sheer.

- Structured shawls and scarves
- Chair upholstery and wall panels
- Accents on bags and footwear
Care
- Hand wash in cold water and do not soak for long
- Keep away from light-coloured items on the first wash
- Dry flat in the shade
- Iron with a pressing cloth, avoiding the fringes

About the motif
Ragidup is among the more intricate ulos arrangements, because its end panels are woven separately and then joined. In Batak Toba custom, ulos have a role in various life ceremonies, and the type given is matched to the occasion.
