[QUOTE="Potteryplease, post: 9486592, member: 16407"]Who knew Navajo weavings could be round? Not me. As [USER=45]@Taupou[/USER] has explained, Navajo weavings are done on a vertical loom and feature a continuous warp--the foundation thread that runs up and down vertically and holds the weft, which are the various threads that become the visual design. Doing that on a circular loom seems quite complicated! The grey one is 20" across and the red one is 22". And, I got a great deal on 'em!
