The uyus, otherwise known as kagoy, is the term for the traditional handwoven blanket in Kalinga. This particular blanket features the silaksakaw design, or crisscross patterns. In the sakaw design, the junctions of the horizontal and vertical lines, or the interconnected diamonds, represent a rattan weave affixed to walls, housing kitchenware such as Chinese plates (panay), regular plates, and bowls, all of which are kept dry and clean (Abbaca-Taguic, 2016). Kalinga handwoven textiles are known for their prominent red stripes and designs featuring geometric patterns mixed with symbols from nature. In color symbolism, indigo represents the night sky, while red represents the earth (soil). Yellow symbolizes growth and abundance, resembling ripe rice grains ready for harvest.
