Where the Navajo Blankets are Woven

ND
Scope & Content:
Black and white photograph showing Navajo indians at a loom. Capture states that "these Navajos have set up their loom in a canyon. A rug 5 by 10 feet requires a month for making, while a very large rug will take a whole year. The Indians supply everything for the work. The wool comes from their sheep and they make the dye from herbs. Usually two work to a loom, one combing the wool and spinning the yarn, the other doing the weaving."
