The late Della Waghiyi St. Lawrence Island Yupik, from St. Lawrence Island, made these tanned and bleached seal skin mittens for ANHC in 2002. The mittens are sewn together with traditional caribou sinew and are waterproof. Although seal skin mittens are still made today, it has become more rare to find mittens with traditional sinew versus synthetic sinew. #CulturalHeritage #culturalexchange | Alaska Native Heritage Center

We're keeping our focus on St. Lawrence Island Yupik culture this month for Throwback Thursday. These beautiful waterproof mittens were made by Della Waghiyi. Men wore these over liners while they were/are out hunting or doing manual labor. The materials are tanned and bleached seal skin and caribou sinew. Della learned how to sew by watching her grandmother and mother-in-law. #culturalheritage #culturalexchange cultur | Alaska Native Heritage Center
