From a distance, they look like two people standing next to each other. 🧶
But there is only one real woman: the other figure is a replica of her, hand-knitted with a level of detail that is astonishing even up close. The clothes, glasses, hat, and even the expression on the face are recreated with yarn. And she didn’t stop there: she also knitted the dog accompanying her, reproducing the exact texture of its fur.
Every stitch seems calculated to fool the eye. Thinking about the hours such a piece requires makes the scene even more astonishing, so real that it’s hard to believe both figures aren’t breathing. 🐶
All of this is the work of the artist https://www.instagram.com/liisa_hietanen/
