Had a really good class in Yerington, NV. Had almost 30 weavers and beginners weaving a small winnowing tray. Here are pictures from the Yerington class. We were making a small winnowing tray. We had a special treat from the Yerington/Bridgeport weavers. They danced 3 dances related to basketweaving. Wonderful eats and visiting with all the weavers.
