New Mexico, the "land of Enchantment", is famous for cliff dwellings, a scenic railroad, a UFO museum, spectacular vistas, amazing food, petroglyphs, two national parks, and so much more. It's also home to the annual Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta (the largest ballooning event in the world). If a ride in a hot air balloon is on your "bucket list", New Mexico is a great place to check that one off.
In this design, colorful balloons fill a bright blue sky . The largest balloon is reminiscent of vintage balloons covered in netting. It might not be a “bucket list” item, but…knit a hot air balloon? Check!
