Spring 2008 Navajo Weaving Class
Refresh your spirit and creativity with the tranquil art of Navajo weaving in
these classes open to beginners and experienced Navajo style weavers alike
in Denver, Colorado. Students will have the opportunity to learn the art of
weaving from Navajo Weaver, Lynda Teller Pete, originally from Two Grey Hills
and Newcomb, New Mexico, Navajo Nation.
While instructing and demonstrating, Lynda will share personal stories and
experiences, allowing participants the chance to gain fascinating insights into
the world of Navajo weaving.
Reading about the different types and styles of Navajo weavings is
encouraged to get a better understanding of Navajo Weaving.
Classes available for those that want to start at the beginning with warping and
learning to weave the "Navajo Way" on an upright loom, while experienced
weavers work to refine their techniques and explore ideas for more complex
designs.
For those that do not wish to warp, there will be Navajo upright vertical looms
fully warped and set up and will receive individualized instruction in areas of
their choosing. Navajo history, culture, spirituality and weaving taboos will also
be discussed along the way.
All classes will accommodate both beginning and intermediate students.

look forward to sharing our weaving knowledge with you and we promise you
will have a great time!!
