A variety of blankets are worn by the people of Lesotho to represent the different rites of passage in society. For example, the Moholobela is worn by young Sotho men in preparation of their transition to manhood. After the initiation ceremony, young men will don a different blanket known as the Lekhokolo, which confirms that they have reached adulthood.
