#BANANA FIBER
Banana fiber, is the "bark" from the stem of the banana plant. The stem is layered, and the outer layers, that have dried are peeled off and collected. Banana-fiber is collected during drier seasons, if used when not properly dry, it easily molds.
The fiber in itself is a bit like bubble-wrap. It has the outer-layers and in between there is a net with bubbles of air in them. Before you can use the fiber you have to take a knife and remove inner layer and the bubbles.
We use the fiber together with palmleaves aka ensansa to make bags or earrings.
