This famous German pirate was captured in 1401. When he received the death sentence from the mayor, he offered a golden chain long enough to be wrapped around all of the town of Hamburg, in exchange for his life. The mayor declined, offended.
After the execution, the legendary Likedeeler treasure has never been found.

Yarn requirements
Two colors: 400 meters in dark color, 200 meters in light color

Needed skills
Stranded knitting and intarsia, basic sock construction, working in the round on double-point or circular needles, and reading charts.

At the moment I offer size M for women and will update the pattern with additional sizes on request.
