This is Omar. He's showing us rugs his father made. We are in their home and workshop. Omar gave us an amazing schooling about the weaving process, all the natural dying processes and about all the symbolism within the designs of the rugs. They get all their wool from a farm 6 hours away. It is ready to go in a huge ball for them to them dye. It was such a special experience that I will remember forever. We ALL bought rugs from them. PLEASE go and see this family if you ever come to Oaxaca- they have a shop in the city and their home is in the rug village: teotitlán del Valle. #feylola email them: [email protected] they are wonderful!!!! #teotitlandelvalle #naturaldyedrugs #woolrugs #allnatural #indigo #cochineal #marigold #oneofakind #chavezsantiago (at Teotitlán del Valle)
