“Zuzu, my little ginger snap!”

The featured variegated colorway in this pattern, Zuzu’s Petals, refers to a famous scene from the film It’s a Wonderful Life, a holiday classic and one of my favorite films. I have often wondered how George and Mary Bailey managed to name their children Janie, Pete and Tommy… and then Zuzu, until I read that the name “Zuzu” came from the Zu Zu Ginger Snaps. And then it all made sense.
