Anne Frank
“I simply can’t build my hopes on a foundation of confusion, misery and death… I think… peace and tranquillity will return again.”
Annelies Marie “Anne” Frank 12 June 1929 – early March 1945) is one of the most renowned and most discussed Jewish victims of the Holocaust. Acknowledged for the quality of her writing, her diary has become one of the world’s most widely read books, and has been the basis for several plays and films. The Frank family moved from Germany to Amsterdam in 1933, the year the Nazis gained control over Germany. By the beginning of 1940, they were trapped in Amsterdam by the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. As persecutions of the Jewish population increased in July 1942, the family went into hiding in the hidden rooms of Anne’s father, Otto Frank’s, office building. After two years, the group was betrayed and transported to concentration camps. Anne Frank and her sister, Margot, were eventually transferred to the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, where they both died of typhus in March 1945.When researching Anne Frank I looked at many photos and there were photos of sweaters sets with beaded edges.and beaded flowers.
Because she died at a young age this needed to be simple. it is also a shawlette as I felt this was warranted.
Test knit by the amazing Smilely.
All proceeds from the sale of this shawlette go to the Ryan Scholarship Program.
