Weaving Loom (retired)

I haven't used this piece yet, so no final grade yet, but I really like it! I have to admit I'm afraid to use it. Until today, I thought the replacement warps had been retired, so I set it aside for some rainy day. Now that I realize that the replacement warps are still available, I'm going to order some and get to work!

Now, I take a bit of exception to this being called a "Navajo" loom, because the Navajo learned to weave blankets from my people, the Pueblo. But, since it is a Navajo woman who teaches Josefina to weave, I'll let it slide this time.

The colors are very nice and go nicely with Josefina's blanket. Now, it will turn out to be very small, so yeah, it's probably best for Niña rather than Josefina. I appreciate the soft, bright colors of the yarn. Josefina's blanket could have used this yarn rather than the awful scratchy stuff she has to suffer!

I'm excited to use the loom. How often is it that a Native American girl of today can purchase an crafting item from her own heritage? It's pretty rare, at least for me, and I truly appreciate that AG made this available.
