The Tree of Gondor Sweater Finished

Guest blogger post by my oldest daughter about her sweater

 

After thirteen months I have finished my sweater. I added a hood to my sweater which I made over-sized like the cloak hoods of a woodland elves.

On it I have two dragons to symbolize Smaug. 

I have also added gold colored hooks for the closers on my sweater. I am thinking of doing a second sweater but I have to see as to what yarn I have available, yarn my mom will give me ;). I think though for the pattern on it I will have a theme of wolves or animals of the night. If you have suggestions please leave photos or locations of patterns on Ravelry in the comments below.

symbolism in sweater

• tree of gondor
• with a woodland elf hood
• with smaug the dragon on the side of the hood
• and the knot work is to represent the dwarfs
• nine closures for the ring wraths
• wizard is the color
• where it goes around her middle finger is where frodo wore the ring last when it was bit off so it represents both frodo and the ring.

 

Note by Sunshine : We do not usually post on Sunday but this was important to me that I show her finished work as soon as I had photos of it.
