Just in time for the colder weather, another Pendleton collaboration is unveiled. Pendleton teamed up with the Cherokee Nation and their Award-winning Lead Graphic Designer Dan Mink for the blanket.
Central to the Pendleton design is a seven-pointed star, reflecting the seven clans of the Cherokee people. Mink also chose a starburst pattern to represent the three federally recognized Cherokee tribes originating from one fire. The color tan represents buck skin; red, black and yellow are artistic colors found in Cherokee artifacts; and gold comes from the Cherokee Nation seal. The border of the blanket is a Southeastern motif, and basket weaving was the inspiration for the inner corners.
