12” Designer Crocheted Dreamcatcher

The Lakota tribe has a different tale regarding the dreamcatcher. In their story, a spiritual leader had a vision where the great Iktomi, a trickster and searcher of wisdom, appeared as a spider. Iktomi took the elder’s willow hoop and spun a web, speaking of the circle of life. He explained how forces, both good and bad, can influence the path we walk, and how the dreamcatcher can serve as a tool to capture the good forces.
