STORM PATTERN NAVAJO RUGS
The main feature of the type is the central X or H pattern found in the center of the rug. The rug itself can be made using any color combination and or any type of wool yarn. This includes hand spun single ply, commercial one ply and multi ply yarns. There are many stories as to what this X or H means. I have heard it to represent lighting, the four sacred mountains, the four directions. As with most Navajo rugs, the patterns have no hidden meaning.
