Amadea; an Identity Collaboration Pattern

Amadea is both lacy and cozy looking, and it’s our cover pattern. This wrap is from Patty Nance, the author of Bargello Knits.  I looked at the stitch pattern and thought, solid color.  She thought colors and, oh look, it’s wonderful.

I love her introduction to the identity theme too

Amadea (adjective, ah-mah-dā-ah, Latin word for beloved)

Knit design is what I do, but it is not who I am. As part of a collection of designs based on the theme Identity, I was challenged to define where my identity comes from. The Bible tells me that I can find my identity in the One who created me, the God of the universe, He who calls me beloved. God made me, He gifted me with creativity, and I express that creativity back to Him in yarn of many colors.

For a great overview, see Lindsay’s write up about the collaboration
