Ep 129: How Shapes Summon Spells

37 minutes

This week, we delve into the enchanting world where each stitch and shape draws upon sacred geometry to weave spells of beauty and intention. From exploring the psychological impact of shapes in nature to the symbolic power of spirals, circles, and Mobius strips, this episode is a journey through the magical landscape of crafting.

Join us as we share our personal favorite shapes and their hidden meanings, with James expressing his love for the elusive ellipse and Katie revealing her affinity for the perfect circle. Discover how these ancient principles influence our knitting and imbue our creations with deeper purpose!
