Preparing Wool to Create Navajo Rug

The traditional way of weaving a Navajo rug requires that wool be spun into a ball of yarn. The weaver takes the raw wool that has been sheared from the sheep. The wools thens have to be sorted into different colors. Then, the wool is spun into a spindle tool. This will make the wool into a fine wool strings that will be woven into the loom to create an authentic Navajo rug.
