What is Ojos de Dios and how it is made?

Question

I have an interest in making one.I've already made one but I want to try and make a challenging pattern that challenges my brain and hands.

Is it possible that anyone can lend me a book on Ojos de Dios?
it is because I've heard from websites that there is a book available and it contains a lot of patterns that is interesting.I cannot afford it from anyway so don't ask me to buy from Ebay or Amazon.

If I sound quite demanding,sorry about it.I'm so interested in it and wishes to try on more patterns.

Please help me.I'll add more details to my questions if anyone ask me to elaborate more on it.

P/S:If anyone knows any website(s),do write it down anyway...

I did not find any of the arts and crafts sites that has instruction on making Ojos de Dios since Jay Mohler's site ( http://ojos-de-dios.com ).

I was inspired after that to make one.I want to try on new patterns that I've never attempted before.

i'm a fast learner so bring on the hardest pattern.I've heard that there are more diverse pattern in Ojos de Dios besides the usual diamond pattern.I'm wondering if there is a book that shows all kinds of pattern and their instruction on how to make them.If there is such book,can anyone lend it to me willingly?

Answer 2

Use your search engines to locate "Ojos de Dios" or "Eye of God". Any arts and crafts site will most likely have directions. If not, give me your address and I will mail you a small one in an envelope. It is simple to make. Mine was made by school children on the Choctaw Indian reservation in Philadelphia, Mississippi. I am retired on disability after working fourteen years for the reservation school system. This is really interesting in that I had planned to donate the item to a thrift shop. Remember, this one is small, but they can be made any size according to the size of the sticks used.
For security sake, perhaps I could send it to a P.O. box or general delivery.

See URL below for good directions.
