As a spinner and weaver myself (in new zealand) it it very interesting to see how they seem to be using barely spun roving, along with single ply, to weave. I assume this does not totally strip all the good lanolin, and my guess is that such blankets and fabric at least partially felt over time, making it stronger and stronger as the years go on... which is kind of even more beautiful than just making a blanket that is it's best when just finished, because these blankets likely get better the more they are handled and used.

i love that she was spinning right from the handcards. i need to give that a go one of these days. as for the felting, i got nervous when they said that she washes the fiber with hot water, and rinses with cold. that is a recipe for disaster with fine wools (like Merino), but i guess that breed is less prone to felting from shock. this video and your comment are giving me the urge to play with some wool. i bought an old 4-shaft table loom last year, and i am desperate to start using it (i'm a weaving newb), but it needs a bit of refurbishing. i may card up some fiber and do a bit of spinning instead. you know how it goes when anyone starts talking about sheep!

@@n.ayisha thanks, i am self taught, love fibre arts. Look up right choice shearing; satisfying sheep shearing videos. Red the merino v hot water, look up videos related to staple length of fibres and how it affects roving; the type of sheep they have are hardier and closer to goat hair/wild sheep, and the fibre is completely different than merino, which has very fine, low crimp staple. I think nicole rudolph on youtube does fantastic videos on fabrics, and her one on wool is incredibly informative. Roxanne richardson also has done a few good videos on the subject as well.

As a Navajo woman i recognize the method bc our elders taught us to weave too. We use wool from sheep, use metal paddle combs, a wooden spindle that looks like a sword 😀 and it's rolled on the thigh rather than just twisted by hand. We use similar cleaning for wool n use plants n such to dye. Just found it neat, ur not the only ppl who do this generational. Beautiful work! 😍

This family is made of kind and talented artists. It’s so beautiful to see this tradition carried on - & their ancestors must be incredibly proud.

Real wool blankets are not only much warmer, they seemingly last for ever. I'm 70 and still have a wool blanket handed down from at least as far back as my grandmother. I also have a hand made Eskimo parka which is wool with an outer protective shell, made by the Eskimos of Inuvik in the Northwest Territories of Canada. At -30 to -35 below F I was always warm. I have such respect for this family.

It was also nice to see the sheep, which are also part of the heritage of the blanket-making craft. The brush-like tool the man was using to “comb” the wool is actually wool cards, for carding wool. The last step, where the blankets are washed in the stream, is called fulling. It makes the threads of the blanket mesh and stick together, to make a cohesive fabric. Slava Ukrainie! 🇺🇦

Yes, thank you for caring, while we continue our craft and make woolen products🇺🇦🌲🇺🇦:)))

Beautiful blankets and beautiful people. Live long lives in safety. ❤️

I started crocheting and looming when I was a kid in middle school, and I still do it now, 11 years later, I hope to do it my whole life, and I love talking to other fiber arts crafters, because I've never met a mean person who loves working on fiber arts projects, we're just a certain type of person who loves to work with our hands to make things that will last and with toys, make children smile, or with baby cloths, make the parents smile :)

What a noble, vibrant and ancient craft! I sincerely hope that all of the crafters, families and communities are ok and will survive this evil global agenda.

Many, many victims have been destroyed in Ukraine. But a strong human spirit and culture cannot be lost. And we believe we must persevere and protect ourselves. Craft is a part of our lives. So while we live we will make blankets and clothes🇺🇦

These are beautiful. Keep weaving, this tradition needs to be kept alive and cherished

Oh wow! I recommend checking out their Etsy shop, linked in the description. They have clothing too! I want to support Ukraine and their traditions.

Love it so much. Tradition must stand. Stupid war can go and kill itself.

Ukrain as gone threw so much over the years and they have proven to be so strong in the time of hardship. Continuenfighting you guys! ♡

Thank you❤️

My prayers 🙏 go out to all of them Their work is beautiful love the spirit they have singing

Praying for them and all the Ukraine people. Fantastic story of strength.

Such strong, hard-working and brave people

Wow, this is amazing. Old technology is incredible and we need to support and revive these old ways.

This is great! Thanks for bringing attention to lizhnik weavers! These are great carpets, wall hangings, and warm blankets! I'm not a Hutsul weaver, but I am teaching my daughter weaving and how to card wool now. She's 7 and has a small table loom to practice on, and a few spindles to spin on if she wants to learn. My family has a history in textiles, I'm glad it's staying in our family today ☺️ I hope the Hutsul traditions live on for centuries to come.

the blankets are beautiful. truly a work of art. textile arts are always the most wonderful to me.

Thank you for keeping these skills alive.

Lovely! Thank you for the video! Thank you for supporting Ukraine!

What beautiful songs and what a beautiful beautiful craft…. So glad it isn’t being lost and I pray they have stayed safe. Thank you for bringing this to the world.

Наталья прекрасная женщина, хорошая семья и чудесное искусство, надеюсь с ними все будет впорядке, очень красиво поёт.

My family had these blankets. The ones I saw were always red, black/grey and white. These are so beautiful! Much nicer than the ones in our house.

Beautiful family so talented- thank you for this intimate tour of their weaving business.

Какая красота! Вы молодцы гуцулы, здоровья вам всем и вашим овцам.

What beautiful blankets! I applaud your artistry and would treasure one of your blankets if I owned one. Grandmother from Michigan, U.S.A.

Beautiful blankets beautiful people

Wonderful tradition and blankets. I am glad to see a few are seeking to keep their traditions going strong. The young weaver also has a beautiful singing voice as well which very special as well sung in the traditional language

It's amazing to me how much the blanket designs and the singing are like Native American blankets and chanting.

I loved everything about this video

Exactly the same custom in Maramures, Northern Romania. Same tools, same process,, same woven patterns. It is typical for that area of the Carpathian mountains.

inainte de revolutie in toata tara se lucra lana . In fiecare casa se lucra manual un tol, un pulovar , o pereche de ciorapi.Acum nimic. Nu am ajuns in maramures, dar se vorbeste ca acolo se mai pastreaza obiceiurile .

Your blankets are a piece of art. Please continue to keep the tradition of making blankets alive. Wish the war gets over asap and life becomes normal soon. Till then take care and stay safe ❤ 💖. Thanks for sharing this video 📹 ❤ 💖 💕 💗 😊

Absolutely beautiful works of art. 😍 Beautiful voice from the young lady. I live in Hawaii and don't need a warm blanket, however I am going to look and most likely purchase one. Not only to help support these people, but also to admire everything about these masterpieces. Thank you for sharing the Etsy link. It didn't work, but I'll find it.
