There’s a lot of upsetting news these days. The world feels turned upside down and calls for bold action and, at times, uncomfortable solutions. In moments like these, is it okay to retreat into your own little world and daydream for a while? It’s a question I keep coming back to. By now, I can answer it clearly for myself: yes, it is — and sometimes it’s even necessary. We all need sources of energy that help us shape and navigate our lives. And when someone starts creating and experiences a sense of achievement — even if it’s only through making a small knotted sun — that spark may encourage them to take on other things afterward, too. We simply can’t stay in catastrophe mode all the time.
Take a break and knot cheerful sun rays for your home or as a fun bag charm. The kawaii sun Lucy spreads her smile to everyone – perfect as an appliqué, garland, or a lovely decoration. Lucy embellishes clothing, gift wrapping, or cards. The sun is a timeless decorative classic for birthdays, summer parties, and many other celebrations.
The pattern includes a symmetrically balanced pattern as comprehensive , colored diagram and written in short notation.
Skills you need: Simple Rings, Ring im Ring, Chains, Picots, Color Change, Joining.
Lucy is a clear and manageable project for intermediate to advanced skill levels. The eyes are made using a special technique. I have carefully worked out and clearly written how you can neatly hide ends.
Beginners can also make the sun without a face.
The angular sun rays are worked without any special techniques.
The sun has a diameter of about 11 cm / 4.3 in
I used 100\% cotton lace yarn (280 m / 50 g)
