Inspired by Spanish crosses and diamond-shaped "ojos" (eyes), this design brings the symbols of the Navajo Four Mountains of Creation to life. The pattern reverses from a deep black background to a crisp white, an achievement made possible by the advanced craftsmanship in Pendleton's own American mills. The pattern itself is a traditional nine-element design, rooted in the art of Native American pueblo dwellers of the Southwest. These historic dwellings, often covered in adobe, were embellished with the same angular, geometric motifs seen here: diamonds, arrows, and stepped, zigzag lines. The crosses represent the four directions, while the zigzags echo the silhouettes of lightning and mountain peaks. More than just a blanket, it's a piece of woven history.Twin is napped and felt bound. Full/Queen and King sizes are unnapped and have Ultrasuede® trim. Pure virgin wool/cotton.
