Ojo De Dios are a Mexican craft otherwise know as God's Eye they are suppose to ward off evil spirits,
I have for some time hankered after doing one of these, I just love the way they look.
I bought some sticks to have a go a long time back and today came across them while sorting out boxes of craft stuff, so armed with some variegated sock yarn this is what I did.
This is the first one I made
This was the second, they are the original 4 sided shape.
I had seem some images for 8 sided ones but no instructions to be found on the Internet, there is instructions there but you have to pay for them, as I was only playing about with them I was reluctant to pay out $8 so now knowing the basics I played with them and made up my own 8 sided design
My own 8 sided design.
As well as playing around with these, I got two more sections done on my Autumn panel
section 5
section 6
This is how they all sit together so far
Half way there now, I am really enjoying doing this panel and looking forward to getting it all joined together and up on the wall.
Tomorrow I hope to get the next 3 sections done.
