Product Details
In Roman Mythology, Psyche was a princess and a mortal whose beauty made Venus jealous. Venus sent her son Cupid to sabotage Psyche’s love life, but he fell in love with her instead. Angry, Venus sent her on a series of deadly errands, but, with the help of the gods, Psyche outwitted Venus at each step. On her final quest, Psyche was to retrieve a gift from the underworld. It was yet another trick, and Psyche fell into a deep sleep. Cupid flew down to rescue her and carried her up to Olympus where he nursed her with ambrosia. This made Psyche immortal, and the two lived happily ever after. (Get it? She became immortal, too.)
Knit your own love story. The boomerang shape is like Cupid swooping down to save Psyche’s life. The bias is emphasized by the gradient yarn and a row of eyelets worked at each color change. Charming embellishments elevate the garter stitch from earthly to Olympian. Easy embroidery represents the journey to find love; tassels are sweet ambrosia to nourish your soul.
