Navajo Tea Dye

- Before I could completely run out, I had to dye some wool using Navajo tea, greenthread (Thelesperma).
The wool is all hand sheared, hand carded, spun and washed. The red yarn I used store bought dye. The gray yarn is all natural from the sheep wool.
I used a single burner to help with boiling the water.
I am satisfied with the outcome! 🙌🏼
This is my first time weaving this style.
It’s a diamond twill saddle blanket.
Hi, I'm a new subscriber to your channel. Thanks for sharing this!
Saw you on Xiaomanyc's channel. Really enjoyed it !! I'm hoping you post more videos in the future. I'm really interested in your culture, cooking, weaving, all of it. You and your family are amazing and we could learn a lot from you. I'm going to subscribe!!
thank you so much!! that mean a lot! I am still working on putting together more videos, weaving and working with wool is taking up most of my time but hopefully soon I will have something up for you all.
Omg, me too. Tyrell's such a great educator.
@@tyrelldescheny very cool! Lovely golden color. Is the reddish brown the natural color of the sheep wool?
I love Navajo tea, I was able to buy it one time from some market when I was in flagstaff and it is really great but never again have I been able to find it. If anyone on the res wanted to sell it I would buy and pay to ship or even come up to get it just for the adventure. I also know a tea place near me that would probably buy a lot of it!. also that rug is beautiful, you are very talented.
You are such a treasure! You have the sweetest spirit and are so talented. It's wonderful that you are doing these videos. I could watch you all day.
need more videos of wool dying with other plants by our navajo people. we showing our children videos virtually and not finding much of it. short videos are great.
most definitely! I'm actually working on some now as well. So far I've only done two plants but more to come!
What a great color that turned out to be!
Indeed! It’s become one of my favorites. I’m hoping to make more again.

Heya! New sub, saw you over at Xiaomany’s channel. ☘️
sweet! thank you so much. truly means a lot to me. welcome to my somewhat of a life on here. I have not uploaded much but soon i will!
@@tyrelldescheny Hello, just saw Xiaomanyc's video too. I think I sense a Navajo LiZiQi (ruclips.net/video/0vd1ljQzJAs/видео.html) channel about to happen...maybe?...yes?
@@lizclements500 omg! I absolutely love her channel. It’s so amazing! I’m hoping one day to have something similar. Right now, it’s really just myself. I can relate to how she’s recording herself with no one else to help. Thank you!
Very cool!
Amazing video you did with Xiaomanyc! =) New subbed here and looking forward to many videos from you. :) Hello from Toronto, Ontario - Canada
thanks for following! I know I've been slacking on new content but hopefully soon!
Would knotting the threads together fix your problem, or would that interfere too much with the weave
Knotting wouldn’t so much as interfere with the work, but it would be visible. Most Navajos prefer a smooth flat weave. That’s why I just lay the ends of the yarn on top of each other to blend together for a smooth unnoticeable look, touch.
Nizhoni!
I thought men wasn't suppose weave and is only for navajo women.....
I’m never surprised when I come across comments like this. Saying something you “thought” is way different than something you’re “taught”
If you ask some elders or older adults, most will say “men weave better than most women” and you get the understanding when they explain their reason for saying so. Weaving is not something that is “gender based” or “gender role” in Navajo society. There are a large amount of Navajo men who weave today. Some traditional stories talk about how men were first to weave and basket. Much like the Hopi, men are only allowed to weave.
I would like to see your resources or evidence of this being said by someone, of what you commented and for their reasonings to say so.
What a gorgeous yellow!
I definitely have to agree! I plan on making more again when I get enough yarn
