I’m making Winter Trees for Christmas markets. Both plain and Decorate Your Own. I had some extra pieces and had a Happy Mistake.

The meaning behind the visuals
The design honours the children who never returned home from residential schools, Survivors, their families and communities.

In the centre are three symbols: a feather, a narwhal, and a flower. Each symbol represents the distinct cultures of First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities, brought together in a circular flowing composition to reflect the connection between the groups.

Above the central elements, stars surrounding the moon honour the children who never returned home from residential schools and symbolize their enduring place in our thoughts and memory. The dotted patterns evoke beadwork and reflect the importance of passing down art, culture and traditions from one generation to the next.

Flowing lines connect the elements of the design, reflecting the connections between land, water, communities and generations. Their winding path represents the journey of reconciliation and reminds us that reconciliation is an ongoing process.

The colour orange represents remembrance and the enduring message that every child matters.

My Italian Summer Scarf for Fall. Done in Polka Dot Creek’s DK Tweed in Spice Market. I love the Autumn vibe.

A little throwback to one of my favourite Pacific Knit Co. Doodle knits. 💀👻🖤

I combined Pacific Knit Co. motifs to create this Halloween cowl, with skulls, ghosts, spooky trees and lots of colourwork. And because apparently ordinary spooky wasn’t quite enough, I used glow-in-the-dark yarn too. 😂✨

Swipe to turn out the lights!

Still one of my favourite Doodle projects and such a fun example of how much you can play with these motifs.
