Pattern description from The Celtic Collection: “The Celtic crosses suggested the strong vertical panels and square shaping of this sweater, while the icy blue colour and textured surface reflect the stone material. I used a unit of knotwork from the Nigg stone for the sweater’s centre panel. The side and centre sleeve panels have a typical pattern found on numerous Pictish stones in Eastern Scotland.”
