Two Gray Hills weavings are characterized by the use of undyed black, gray, tan and white colors often laid out in a diamond or saw-tooth pattern. The designation originated at the trading post on the Navajo Reservation by the same name. The basic elements of the Two Gray Hill style were established around 1920, The weavers are especially known for their well carded wool and the highest thread count per inch on the reservation.
