Caribou Skin Clothing of the Igloolik Inuit
Caribou Skin Clothing of the Igloolik Inuit outlines the various steps involved in the creation of traditional Inuit caribou skin clothing, namely the hunt, preparation, and sewing. In addition to diagrams and practical instructions, this book is filled with historical information and insights from elders of the Igloolik region.
Meticulously researched by former Arctic resident and anthropologist Sylvie Pharand, this book can be used as a practical guide to creating caribou skin clothing, as well as a general-interest text for those interested in traditional skin clothing.
