Couleurs de laine naturelle

Two Grey Hills est situé sur le côté est des montagnes Chuska dans la partie Nouveau-Mexique de la réserve Navajo. Les tisserands de la région de Two Grey Hills préfèrent utiliser de la laine indigène naturelle non teinte au lieu de fils commerciaux. Les couleurs d'un design classique Two Grey Hills seront composées de noir, gris, beige, marron et crème. Chaque tisserande développera ses couleurs de fil uniques en mélangeant des couleurs de laine naturelle par un processus appelé « cardage ». Pour obtenir une couleur noire unie, les tisserands vont sur-teindre la laine marron foncé avec une teinture noire.

La région est également réputée pour ses tapisseries finement tissées. Un textile avec un nombre de trames de 80 ou plus par pouce linéaire est considéré comme une tapisserie et non comme un tapis. Un tapis Navajo bien tissé aura en moyenne environ 40 à 50 trames par pouce linéaire. L'utilisation de fils finement filés permet à certains tisserands de créer des motifs géométriques très complexes. Certains tisserands de Two Grey Hills atteignent 120 fils par pouce ou plus.

Les tisserands notables passés et présents incluraient Daisy Taugelchee, Cora Curley, Marilyn John, Katherine Nathaniel et Larry Nathaniel.
