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.

Two Doukhobor women at loom.

On back of photo: "Mrs. Bludoff Sr. and Mrs. Wasyl Bludoff stringing the warp in the loom previous to the demonstration. It took the two of them almost a day to do this and the warp skein of 5 yards length had been prepared before then came. Herring-bone pattern was woven in the linen. Four treadles were used".
