| Transporting this Rug was a job. This Navajo Ganado rug weighed over 500lbs. |
 |
Over 50 darn areas some patched with fabric, from a previous attempt at repairing.
In my restoration I counted over 100 areas that were rewoven. Replacing edging cords etc.
I began by color matching, dyeing. Then the process of using raw wool carding, spinning the yarn, by spindle and wheel. |

Mounting numerous areas of the rug on a Traditional Navajo
Loom. To begin the Re Weaving of damaged areas.
