The Nines

Materials

In Tarot, the four Nines represent a closing of a cycle, and call for reflection and review. This felt like the perfect time to take some time for reflection, as we are looking forward to a season of opening and widening of our lives and circles. The rhythm of the stitches are perfect for quiet reflection, and the colorways we used are representative of two of the Nine cards in our favorite Tarot deck.
