See what we can weave now!

We have been working for nearly two months with master weaver Don Oscar Boj. We have been learning a lot! The most exciting for us is that we have learned how to read weaving drafts, thread our looms in different ways, and thus how to create many different designs. We have been taking notes (that is something new for us, too, since most of us have not had been able to go to school...) and we will be able to build upon this training forever. Here is an example of our new capabilities. We can really envision lots of new weaves. Next week we will begin the second phase of our training -- stay posted!
