Description

The possibly best known of the Norse gods goes by many names: Oden, Odin, Wotan, the Allfather and more. He gave one eye to acquire wisdom. This pattern incorporates symbols of eyes to mirror his wisdom.

The combination of soft yarn and nordic braids shows off very well on solid or semi solid yarns.

Charts and written instructions are given for three sizes.
