Thanks everyone for your support of our custom knits. We are going to close down the shopping cart for a couple weeks while we rivise our knit product list. Thanks for your patience.
Have a Great Day, Sharon
The Art of the Pacific Northwest Indian Nations is a unique art style all of its own. The different graphic shapes are used to interpret different body parts and characteristics for each animal drawing dependent upon the region. These are harder to depict in a knitwear design where the subtle curves and definite lines must fit in smaller spaces with rectangular shaped knit stitches. The Pacific Northwest Coast Art is applicable to many Indian Nations ranging from Alaska to Northern California. This would include: Tlingit, Tahltan, Kaigani Haida, Nisga's, Gitksan, Haida, Haisla, Coast Tsimshian, Nuxalk, Heiltsuk, Nuxalk, Oweekeno, Nuu-chah-nulth, Makah, Coast Salish, Tolowa, Yurok, and Wiyot.
Native American Blankets are all Custom Knit so you can select your own colors for the 2 color blankets. Each design is offered in acrylic (Note: we had to remove the option of Merino Wool, the distributor has eliminated a lot of the colors).
