Weaving

Throughout this trip I have seen beautiful weavings created on upright tapestry looms.



This weaving shows a Navajo holy person called a Yeibichai. This weaving was about 2 x 4 feet.

This one was in the museum at Mesa Verde in southwestern Colorado.



Lots of kinds of plants are used to dye the wool for weaving














                                                                                             
This was at the Indian Market in Santa Fe. Although I have seen lots of examples of weaving, I have yet to see any sheep! Where are the sheep?
