Dine Be’ Iina presents 18 days of training in traditional Navajo wool processing, tool making and fiber arts techniques culminating in the Sheep is Life Celebration event. The focus for this project will be teaching and fostering traditional wool production, harvesting, processing, spinning and weaving techniques that do not depend on water and modern technology. Dine Be’ Iina will host monthly community-based events to share and provide trainings in the creation of fiber/wool projects in Window Rock, Ganado and Tsaile. These workshops provide attendees the opportunity to learn and exchange knowledge about the Navajo pastoral lifeway.
