Teaching old dogs new tricks could be one of our motto’s. Caroline is seen here in front of her very own Navajo loom at the Fiber Factory in Mesa, Arizona where she and I are taking a Navajo Weaving class. Caroline took this class in early April with her mom, but there is so much to learn that taking the class a second and maybe even a third time is in order. The loom on the left is the one I’ve borrowed from Fiber Factory and the dark band of yarn at the bottom is my attempt so far at making a Navajo rug. Sharie Monsam leads our class and is a patient, well-knowledged instructor. Sharie is joined by her friend Mary Walker of Weaving in Beauty, together they are making the class and the difficulty in learning this skill a truly wonderful way to spend a Tuesday evening.
