A rectangular black cloth with a wide patterned band lengthwise across the lower half. The side and bottom edges of the cloth are hemmed in black and red, with a white zigzag stitch along the edge. The band has five horizontal rows, three of which are patterned with white thread and some red in the background, and two of which are black with two horizontal white lines through them. The top and bottom row have a double zigzag pattern. The rest of the row is patterned with diamond shapes.

The top, middle, and bottom rows have a space in the pattern towards the right edge where the background colour is visible without pattern.

The pattern is a thin repeating vertical zigzag in tan. The zigzags have spirals on each outer point. There is a vertical band towards the left edge of the pattern where the zigzags stop and the tan fibre is woven straight across.
A rectangular black cloth with a wide, colourful, patterned band lengthwise across the lower half. The side and bottom edges of the cloth are bordered in red, with green and pink dots along the edge. The band has three horizontal rows, each patterned with horse motifs in profile. The top and bottom row have a dark red background, and the middle row has a background of horizontal red, black, and green stripes. There are colourful patterned borders between the rows. All three rows begin (left-right) with two horses, the bottom four facing down and the top two facing up. All the rows have a space in the pattern where the background colour is visible without pattern. After the space, the horses in the top and bottom rows are alternately facing up and down the cloth in pairs, repeated across the textile. The middle row has a horizontal zigzag line with spirals on either side, bordered by another line. In the empty triangles made by the zigzag pattern, is a single horse motif facing away from the middle of the row. There are also alpaca(?) and dog(?) motifs in some triangular spaces along with the horse.
