This class will introduce participants to an appreciation of Diné weaving by creating and weaving a small rug on a traditional upright loom. Diné weavings are internationally known for their unique designs and techniques using vegetal, natural, and aniline-dyed handspun wool. Traditional preparations of wool-carding, spinning, and dyeing-will be discussed when time permits. The Navajo culture, history of rugs, and way of life will be included in the discussions during instruction. No experience is required for this class.
