Irish Harp Pattern



03/04/10 - Irish Harp - Saint Patrick's day is right around the corner and the first pattern for this year is this Irish Harp. It consists of two pieces that overlapped to create the vacant center. Stringers are used to add the strings of the instrument.

Did you know that the Irish people position their harps on the left shoulder? Placing it there puts the instrument over the heart. This harp with its delicate and beautiful sound is played currently in spite of the fact that it was banned and disallowed to be played for centuries. The harpists were even hung for playing this beautiful instrument. Today this harp is played all over the world.

Apply a bit of black Glassline paint and/or a few dots to bestow some fine details to the art piece. Make sure to partly cover the two separate harp pieces to guarantee that they fuse together.
