Sami Reindeer Hide
Reindeer are found and herded around the whole northern Polar Circle, Mongolia and a small portion of China closest to the Mongolian border, in the North their territory is in risk due to foresting, mining and oil production. Reindeer herding is largely still an indigenous enterprise today. The Sami people are the indigenous people in the far North; their community stretches across the north of Norway, across Sweden and into Finland and Russia. Reindeer herding is essential to their survival, approximately 40% of the population relies on herding for their income. The Sami have always used as much of the reindeer as possible: milk, hides, meat, horn, bone and hooves are all used, very little of the animal is left for waste. The company we buy the rugs from was established in 1929 and is located in the far north of Sweden, above the Artic Circle in Sattajärvi located in the Swedish province of Norrbotten. The company continues to be a family business today; they produce everything by hand in their workshop.Blanket Shirt

After finishing 6 rows of the igloo you remove the outside of the form as the wall is now leaning in far enough so the snow can be packed from the outside.
