Abundance Beanie by Yigitcan/ Pufido

Craft: Knitting

Abundance is inspired by traditional Anatolian Kilims. There are so many meaningful motifs used in these kilims. Abundance combines Elibelinde, Comb, and Eye motifs.

Elibelinde is a femininity symbol which stands for abundance, fertility, luck and fortune, while the Comb motif refers to creativity and productivity. Eyes are protectors against “devil eyes” and malice.
