Book Synopsis To Weave for the Sun by : Rebecca Stone-Miller
Book excerpt: Textiles were the Incas' most prized possessions. Their first gifts to European strangers were made not of gold and silver, but of camelid fibre and cotton. They believed that the highest form of weaving was created expressly for the sun, which they considered the greatest of the celestial powers.
