The Ojibwa Design Page

By: Lynn Ewings and Sherry Frisch

The Ojibwa are a group of Native Americans that can be found in northern Minnesota and Wisconsin as well as parts of Canada, Michigan, and parts of the Dakotas. They are also referred to as Anishinabe or the Chippewa. The Ojibwa are known for their craft and bead work. They use many designs in their artwork. This particular design is one that was found on a beaded knife sheath.
