Karanis; Textiles; Wool

Notes:

Fragment of yellowed woven wool fabric with several variegated brown pinstripes. The widest pinstripe has 4 picks. (Shaded stripes?) There are several rows of stitching. The weft is very unevenly spun; some areas have low twist, others are so tightly twisted that there are kinks in the yarn.
