What reading level is Aboriginal American Weaving book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
From September until April the skin isin prime condition with an abundance of soft wool under a heavycovering of long coarse hair; but the hunting is only done in theautumn. To prepare for the plucking, the skin must be kept wet on theunderside so it is moistened and rolled up for several days, thusloosening the hold of the fleece. With thumb and fingers of bothhands the squaw, seated upon the ground, pushes the fleece from her, procuring by this process great patches of wool and hair. Then the...hairs are plucked out and thrown away and the wool is ready to bespun. During the spinning the woman also sits upon the ground withlegs outstretched, with the crude wool by her left side within easyreach. This she draws out with her left hand and feeds to her right, in the amount necessary to form the required size of thread. As it isreceived between the palm of the right hand and the right thigh, it isrolled from the body and falls to the side in loose, connected thread. This soft thread is next spun between the palm of the hand and thethigh to form a single tightly twisted strand; and by the same processtwo of these strands are rolled together to form the weft thread forthe blanket.
