Éar - In Loving Memory of my Grandma, Maria.
Éar (ἔαρ) borrowed from Ancient Greek means Spring.
As I create this “Éar Cardigan”, symbolizing the season of Spring, I am reminded of the warmth of her love and the beauty she saw in every stitch. Just as Spring brings new life and growth, her lessons continue to bloom in my heart with each knit and purl.
