This rug was probably a commission from a business to greet people as they came through the door. It is a saddle size blanket about 36 inches by 60 inches and the top part has writing. It was made before the Navajo language was created in the alphabetic glyphs you are now reading so I do not know what the weaver thought she was writing in the least line. The middle line is obviously "Hello" and it think the Jolee is for the Spanish word "Hola". I have never learned the top line.
I will add more pictures in the morning on 3-8-18 it's late.
