The Story of Shiprock: A Sacred Navajo Landmark Woven in Wool
The powerful mountain motifs of this design draw their inspiration directly from the jagged peak of Shiprock, rising almost 1,600 feet in the Four Corners region of New Mexico. Known to the Navajo people as Tsé Bit'a'í ("The Rock with Wings"), this ancient volcanic formation has deep spiritual and historic significance and was dedicated as a National Natural Landmark in 1975. Wool is nature's original performance fabric, offering exceptional temperature regulation and long-lasting durability. By using specialized jacquard looms, Pendleton ensures that this rich historical pattern reverses beautifully, giving you two distinct, high-contrast looks in one masterfully woven blanket.
Exceptional American Craftsmanship and Timeless Style
What sets an unnapped Pendleton blanket apart is its outstanding durability and structured feel. The tight, unbrushed weave resists pilling and maintains its shape beautifully over the decades, making it a true family heirloom. Whether used as a heavy winter layer, a striking throw for your sofa, or displayed on the wall as a tapestry, the Shiprock blanket is a beautiful investment in heritage design.
