Notes

In my hometown there is a “Way Of Sculptures” where several bronze sculptures of Kurt Lehmann are exhibited. All are naked and cry for dressing.

The Boy With Pigeon is barely 10m away from our local yarn store, see window behind left. This was my test-knitting for Femme Debout. Noticing that the leaf curled at the rims I lined it with a piece of cloth.

The fig leaf is neither a political statement nor shows it my kind of view of naked sculptures.

If you want to rework the pattern I recommend this pattern from Lykkefanten which I just found flipping through the patterns. It looks rather alike and I don’t need to write instructions :-)
