A much closer look at the megtetennun (an expert weaver) and her magpeneh (design-making) showing the choice of colored yarn for each rows and pulled threads along several sud (bamboo comb). This tennun is a bunga-sama. Bunga-sama's detailed diamond motifs, resembling a phyton's skin, are also said to be representing the continuity of universe.
