Raanu

Year 2015 was anniversary for folk costumes in Finland and even I got very inspired. I didn't use though directly folk costumes as inspiration sources but got inspired by other traditional textile crafts. As one source for my inspiration was a traditional wall hanging raanu that I used for a stranded pattern and executed as a cardigan:
