Both versions contain charts. **Update 31 December 2023** **Please Note:** I have now extended this pattern to fit a 85cm/33.5" hoop. You can find the [Extended Version HERE][1]. It is made with Scheepjes Whirl and the pattern is available for free or as a paid PDF. ************************************************* During these last few months, I have thought a lot about the hidden (unseen) things people go through; some of them temporary, and some of them life-long battles. Regardless of the extent/seriousness/duration, hidden things carry a burden very different from that of visible things. And if they are hidden even from ourselves, whether that is simply because we don’t have names for them yet, or because we do not want to acknowledge them, that burden becomes even heavier. I designed this mandala to acknowledge the hidden and unseen, both in others and in ourselves. The colours have been inspired by a Rainbow Zebra Infographic for Ehlers Danlos Syndrome. **Details** This Mandala is a 29-round mandala, designed to be stretched on a hoop and used as a wall hanging. The pattern contains Bobble stitches, Popcorn Stitches, Puff Stitches, and Front Post/Back Post stitches. Although it is an intermediate pattern, it has been written for adventurous beginners, with plenty of photos and hints. Enjoy!
