Blanket Vellux

Blanket Weavers of the Southwest by Joe Ben Wheat,

Exquisite blankets, sarapes, blanket vellux and ponchos handwoven by southwestern peoples are admired throughout the world. Despite many popularized accounts, serious gaps have existed in our understanding of these textiles--gaps that one man devoted years of scholarly attention to address. Anthropologist Joe Ben Wheat (1916-1997) visited dozens of museums to study thousands of nineteenth-century textiles, oversaw chemical tests of dyes from hundreds of yarns, blanket vellux and sought out obscure archives to research the material blanket vellux and documentary basis for textile development. His goal was to establish a key for southwestern textile identification based on the traits that distinguish the Pueblo, Navajo, blanket vellux and Spanish American blanket weaving traditions--and thereby provide a better way of identifying blanket vellux and dating pieces of unknown origin. Wheat's years of research resulted in a masterful classification scheme for southwestern textiles--and a book that establishes an essential baseline for understanding craft production. Nearly completed before Wheat's death, "Blanket Weaving in the South west describes the evolution of southwestern textiles from the early historic period to the late nineteenth century, establishes a revised chronology for its development, blanket vellux and traces significant changes in materials, techniques, blanket vellux and designs. Wheat first relates what Spanish observers learned about the state of native weaving in the region. Subsequent chapters deal with fibers, yarns, dyes, blanket vellux and fabric structures blanket vellux and with tools, weaves, blanket vellux and finishing techniques. Throughout the text, Wheat discusses blanket vellux and evaluates the distinct traits of the three textile traditions. More than 200 photos demonstrate these features, including 191 color platesdepicting a vast array of chief blankets, shoulder blankets, ponchos, sarapes, diyugi, mantas, blanket vellux and dresses from museum collections nationwide. In addition, dozens of line drawings demonstrate the fine points of technique.
