The aim of this free crochet pattern is to be more than just a design; it’s to serve as a piece of craftivism. The tapestry features Handala, the iconic Palestinian figure created by artist Naji al-Ali, who has stood for over fifty years as a symbol of exile, resilience, and the struggle for justice.
