Wolf in sheep clothing DK
This sweater might be an ironic piece of knitwear, since the wolf is not nice to the sheep all knitters love. In itself, it is a “wolf in sheep’s clothing”. However, the wolf is a beautiful animal and has been a symbol of the warrior in many cultures for centuries. Despite its bad reputation, the wolf is not evil; it just doing what comes naturally to a wolf.
The sheep’s clothing starts to tear Which leaves the wolf exposed and bare.
Eventually we all reveal Everything we do conceal.
