“In Dwimordene, in Lorien,
Seldom have walked the feet of Men,
Few mortal eyes have seen the light
That lies there ever, long and bright.
Galadriel! Galadriel!
Clear is the water of your well;
White is the star of your white hand;
Unmarred, unstained, are leaf and land
In Dwimordene, in Lorien,
More fair than thoughts of Mortal Men.”
I wanted to make a bag “about” Galadriel, and after re-reading The Lord of the Rings, I came up with this cabled pattern. The cables might be taken for trees or pillars, which would fit with Galadriel’s being a noble Lady in Lothlorien.
Araniel kindly test-knitted it for me.
Feel free to send me a message with any questions.
