A Weavers Tour of Oaxaca
Welcome

This was one of the most memorable and exciting trips of my lifetime.  Arranged and led by Eric Mindling of Oaxaca, the trip took us to small mountain villages to view and experiment with weaving, spinning dyeing and basket weaving; to an experimental cochineal farm and to a seaside cliff which is the abode of a small snail used for dyeing fibre.

Spindles for cotton and silk spinning.
