Why make an¨Ojo de Dios¨Making an Ojo = prayer that the
eye of God will watch over us (or the person we are making it for) and grant us (them) health, fortune, and a long life.
They can be used as good luck symbols (talisman of spiritual protection)
The Ojo becomes a physical representation of the prayer.

How was it used in the old days?
In Mexico, the central eye was made when a child was born. Each year, a bit of yarn was added until the child turned five at which point the ojo was completed.
In Bolivia, “God’s Eyes” were made to be placed on an altar so that the gods could watch over the praying people and protect them.

How to put it all together?Here's how to make an Ojo
De Dios:Step 1: Hold two sticks together with
your thumb & forefinger. (You can also super glue the sticks together so it makes it easier to handle).
While holding the sticks, wrap the yarn around the sticks diagonally two to three times and then two to three times the opposite directions.
