Alice's Adventures in Wonderland Square by Tuppence
Design inspired by Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
This is the square I designed to represent Alice's Adventures in Wonderland for My Reading Afghan. This was the March-April selection for the Ravelry group, 'Knitting 19th-Century Novels'. The two columns represent the White Rabbit's footprints and how Alice chased after him and thus began her adventures.
