It's one of the largest exhibits of fine Navajo rugs ever displayed at a museum, and the only word that can describe it for Navajo Nation Museum director Manuelito Wheeler is "overwhelming."

I would like to see a weaving class for beginners in the Phoenix,AZ area in the near future.It would be open to the public of course.In the Navajo legends,our medicine man teach that that Spider Women taught the Navajos how to weave on a loom that Spider Man told them how to make.There are Blessing way songs for spinning and weaving. People say weaving provides many benefits in life,It gives you mental and physical well being.It's a discipline tool that teaches you to be self sufficient and improve your life..Thanks, Ryvre.
