{"product_id":"praying-hands-illusion-knitting-pattern-by-steve-plummer-woolly-thoughts","title":"Praying Hands Illusion","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis illusion is based on a drawing by Albrecht Dürer. It is commonly known as \u003cem\u003eThe Praying Hands\u003c\/em\u003e but is also known as \u003cem\u003eHands of the Apostle\u003c\/em\u003e. The original drawing was a preparatory sketch, nearly five hundred years ago, for a painting on an altarpiece which was later destroyed in a fire. It was on blue paper, which is why I chose blue for the shawl.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe image is often seen in the form of an engraving which is why I chose copper colours for the wall-hanging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe versions shown in the photos were made in Double Knitting (DK) yarns. You could use other yarns but this would change the overall size. The shawl is about 140 cm (56”) wide and 70 cm (28”) deep excluding the edging. The wall-hanging is about 48 cm (19”) wide and 70 cm (28”) high.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe shawl is shown hanging on the wall. It is fixed to a long piece of wood which has Velcro stuck on it so it is very easy to take down when needed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LoveCrafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56738881929594,"sku":"UPID141595","price":8.59,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/7bf22e1f6f8674c124292a9cf60804af02ddac9c_UPID141595_172864770639117.jpg?v=1775779512","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-au\/products\/praying-hands-illusion-knitting-pattern-by-steve-plummer-woolly-thoughts","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
