This piece is created using fresh harakeke (flax) harvested from Omaka in Blenheim. The takitahi (under one over one) pattern is used but then the whenu is split in two and continued, resulting in a finer weave. Takakawe simply means 'to persist'.
This piece is currently on display at The Karaka Kitchen.
Toi size (approximate):
Height: 70 cm
Width: 30 cm
Tungi ate ururua, kia tupu whakaritorito te tupu o te harakeke.
Clear away the undergrowth so the new shoots of the harakeke can spring up.
