Fiber Preparation and Spinning on a Navajo Spindle with TahNibaa Naataanii

TahNibaa Naataanii of Golden Navajo Churro Sheep Corral brings us the sights, sounds, songs, and stories of tending, preparing, and spinning her flock’s fiber in the way that her ancestors taught her. Naataanii tends a flock of Navajo Churro in a range of stunning natural colors and transforms their fleeces into fiber, felt, yarn, and both traditional and modern weavings. Naataanii is always very generous with her time demonstrating at the festival.
