Evening Rain
by Judy Dercum

Judy Dercum’s initial inspriation for this slim-fitting cardigan came from a woven Navajo woman’s chief blanket from the mid-nineteenth century. Judy added the vertical zigzag motif, which is a common pattern in other Navajo blankets and probably derived from early Spanish weaving designs. Both the zigzag motif and the colors, all achieved with natural dyes, are meant to evoke images of an early evening rain in the desert southwest. This garment is worked in intarsia with the exception of the zigzag motif, which is stranded.
