Laverne Greyeyes - Navajo Weaver

Description

Laverne Greyeyes is a Navajo rug weaver. Her clan is the Deer Water, and her paternal clan is the Mexican. "I learned weaving from my mom. Through the years, when I was small, that's when we had sheep. We would sheer the sheep, card, spin, and dye the wool. We were doing it very traditionally growing up. The way my mom tells me, weaving has been in our family at least four generations." Spend a Minute Out In It listening to the soothing sounds of wood padding wool--the sound of Laverne's childhood.
