TM50 Webisode featuring Mahi Piupiu. Performed as a poi in 1988, this song speaks of the process for making piupiu, from the cutting of the harakeke through to the preparation of muka, the miro, boiling dying and weaving. The song reflects not only on the process but the skill and dedication required to make our piupiu.
