I knitted this piece of treasure for an exhibition at Kensington Palace called The Enchanted Palace. It was staged by Wildworks, a Cornish theatre company, who were invited to cast a spell over the palace, creating a mysterious and atmospheric world for visitors to explore, and bringing the hidden stories of the historic royal residence dramatically to life. The Crown Jewels were knitted by various knitters and I was delighted to be invited to make The Orb.
Knitted orb, all my own design
