The definition of amore has always felt like it is missing something: that squishy, warm-fuzzy feeling you get when you are wrapped up in yarn. It is colorful and bright, fluffy like a puff stitch, and can hug you like post stitches wrapped around one another. Amore is an emotion rich with texture and history. It is beautiful.
