This style rug was traded to the high-status members of the Pueblo and Plains people, giving the “blanket” its name: Chief. The earliest established weaving style, the Chief is distinguished by its square shape and simple design in blue, red, black and white. The basic pattern has evolved over time. The first Chiefs were woven in plain stripes of blue, white, black, and brown. During a second phase, weavers added short red bars to the design. Third phase Chiefs, with stepped triangles and rose-colored wool sometimes replacing the red, are the most popular today. In the fourth phase, the stripes were subsumed into squares against a solid background. Fourth phase Chiefs are rarely woven today.

Each of our patterns are tested and proven. They are authentic designs that have been completed numerous times. Each comes with a color diagram and instruction sheet and includes the colors and amount of yarn required to successfully complete each pattern. All of our Patterns use 4 Ply Acrylic Yarn (wool can also be used if you prefer).
