Description and Table of Contents

Description

In 1971, Tiana and Noel wrote 'Working with the wool: How to weave a Navajo Rug'. Noel later later wrote 'Designing with the Wool' and 'The Weaver's Pathway'. Now, this single authoritative volume brings together those three books - with updates and revisions - as well as excerpts from other published articles and books by Noel and Tiana about Navajo weaving, culture and history. Detailed charts and illustrations help the weaver find her way step-by-step through the making of a first sampler and through several more advanced techniques. Brilliant photographs by John Runnning illuminate the pages.
