Apollo & Daphne Cowl
After tiring of Apollo’s advances, the nymph Daphne begged the gods for rest. The gods obliged-and turned her into a laurel tree. Apollo, recognizing that it was Daphne, took a branch and made it into a wreath, and placed it on his head so that she would always be with him.
Here is a laurel leaf wreath of your own to knit and wear.
