It could be bunnies!
This is the most complicated thing I’ve done so far. The places that I caught the floats are a little too obvious in places and the tension is a little off on some of the larger sections with one color, but it’s getting better! Too bad the worst part is at the top 😅
Making progress, I think I’m about 2/3 of the way through the colorwork
I finished the charted portion! The rest is just miles and miles of greige, and figuring out how to do sleeves.
Sleeve #1! The pattern was for short sleeves despite all the pictures being long sleeves, so I had to figure out how and when to decrease for long sleeves on my own, which is more of an adventure than I was expecting for my first knit sweater. It took a couple of tries but I think it works!
In Celtic mythology, the hare is a symbol of womanhood, fertility and transformation, abundance and the changing seasons. Hares are shape shifters who can move between the physical and spiritual worlds. They bring luck, prosperity and abundance to those who see one.
so elegant
Fabulous piece of work.
Well done.
Did you design the pattern yourself ?

The mind boggles how she ever managed to design that with the stitch reduction as well. Very skilled knitter.
It never ceases to amaze me just how clever women are in crafts and designing with wool, fabric etc.
I have a friend who is an amazing quilter. She can't sell her work.
None of these skills are recognised as being exceptional. My husb says it's because it's seen as Women's Work and therefore underrated when it should be widely celebrated.
Women cooked for centuries then a few male chefs came along and suddenly THEY are the experts.
@haloedrain
100% agree.
Those artisan skills are/were so creative and nourishing for humans' well-being. I love finishing the day knitting or crocheting. Its the gentle repetition and rhythm that de-stresses.
I taught our 3 girls to knit and crochet but they don't make anything. It'll die out with my generation 😔
Oooh Nice!
