Merging here from new article Leteisi

In Botswana, this fabric is also an important traditional heritage, but with several names other than shweshwe -- most commonly leteisi. I am merging a small recent article about leteisi into this one, preserving the history there by using a Merge and Redirect. HouseOfChange (talk) 22:24, 19 February 2025 (UTC)Reply
