Jacobsester [Leuven, Belgium]

It's already a few weeks ago since I found a nice place where I could put up "Jakobsstern's" older sibling. As you might remember from one of my last posts, I knitted a tag for a sculpture of St Jacob in Göttingen, Germany, but then decided not to leave it there, since I thought it was too big. Instead, I made a new, smaller one, "Jakobsstern".

Now I found a good spot for the big one, too: While walking through the beautiful city of Leuven, I found a small crossing over the canal with a goose's sculpture and a pole which had just the right size for my knitting. And the best thing: The pole had a sign of St James' Way ("Jakobsweg" in Dutch) which was apparently coming by this place. So both knittings got the opportunity to be in touch with St Jacob. Therefore, I named this knitting the same as its younger sibling, "Jacobsester", but now in Dutch instead.
