Santa Fe Blanket

Vibrant colors and the passion for living are incorporated into this Santa Fe inspired blanket. This is the companion pattern for the video How to Crochet the Santa Fe Motif!

Just as the sun is the center of all New Mexican life, the sun is the core of the motif radiating in the four directions of the compass.

A band of black and white, representing good and evil surround the core of life. One must make decisions as one passes through life’s turmoil and emerges in self-expression as represented by the third level of color.

Since each person’s lifework is unique, each motif is crocheted in its own combination of color. The only constant being the band of black and white. This is such a inspiring way to blend even the tiniest amounts of yarn into the landscape of life.

Using readily available worsted weight yarn, this blanket is a scrap-happy project!
