OsLove

This pattern is available as a free Ravelry download

Available in English and Norwegian. Friday the 22nd of July 2011, Norway, and my heart, came to a halt as we saw the terrible terrorist attack unfold in Oslo and on Utøya. As a writer I’ve had a hard time expressing myself, but I wanted to find a way to show and share my love and not only for the victims of this tragedy and the people of Norway, but something that could be a tool for anyone wanting to express their love and support.

That’s why I’ve made a knitting pattern for a tiny stuffed heart and shared it under the Creative Commons License Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported (CC BY-NC-SA 3.0), so that people could tweak it and keep on sharing the love.

Update: After the events in the UK the last days I also added two Lovedon charts, and two more charts from designer Petra Thiemer. I decided to redo the pattern into an ebook, so that all designers would get proper credit for their work.
