Splendor In The Highlands: Maya Weavers of Guatemala (English R1)

With brilliant colors and intimate views, Margot Blum Schevill introduces us to 22 Guatemalan weavers and their weaving styles and techniques. Both traditional back strap weaving for clothing and cloth, as well as floor loom weaving for decorative blankets, ribbons and yardage, are included, as is a visit to an ikat or jaspe dye workshop. Produced by the educational nonprofit Endangered Threads Documentaries.
