Doukhobor woman at loom

Mrs. Wasyl Bludoff of Langham in national Doukhobor costume running her 60 year old spinning wheel which was brought from Russia at a demonstration put on by the Saskatoon Arts and Crafts Society at the U of S June 1925. Sask grown flax is being spun. The comb holding the fibre is wooden tooth; an iron tooth comb as is used for wool is not satisfactory with flax. The folk behind are watching the loom in operation.
