    Five signs.
    One story.

    01

    The tree

    Often read as the tree of life: growth and family.

    02

    The hook

    Commonly seen as a protective sign against the evil eye.

    03

    The zigzag

    Linked to water and the snake, seen as a guardian. Five times, freely by hand.

    04

    The red field

    A shift in the wool colour, called abrash: a new dye lot began mid work.

    05

    The angles

    According to Bruno Barbatti, many signs stand for fertility, the female and the male.
