For hundreds of years they used the wool of the Churro sheep and wooden floor looms to create blankets to keep them warm during the cold New Mexico winters. The designs on these blankets were creative masterpieces of design and color. This tradition continues up until today. Within the small Northern New Mexico village of Chimayo, families continue to weave beautiful textiles.
