FO: As Rich as a Lannister


Pattern: The Age of Brass and Steam by Orange Flower 
Yarn: Caron Simply Soft in colorway "Burgundy"
Mods: None
Knit While Watching: "Vikings", "Game of Thrones", "A Mother's Rage" (don't laugh, Lifetime movies normally suck, but this one wasn't half bad), 
Purpose: Project 2 of hopefully 4 for the Game of Thrones KAL

The inspiration for this piece was Tyrion Lannister. He has earned the right as my favorite character for several reasons, a few being: his quick-wit, always interesting dialogues, surprising nobility and kindness, and overall just the fact he kicks a**. Not to mention Peter Dinklage's perfect portrayal and you have a recipe for greatness.



I choose the color burgundy because it reminded me of wine, and that has to be Tyrion's favorite beverage.

As for the photos: The gold coins are supposed to represent the Lannister gold and the gold knights helmet Jamie (Tyrion's brother, for those who don't know) which seemed fitting to me because I do think Jamie and Tyrion, honestly care for each other.
