The Fellowship of the Ring Afghan — Boromir

Boromir—son of Denethor II, Steward of Gondor—like many others, joins the Fellowship during the Council of Rivendell. He is skilled in the arts of warfare and beloved by the people of Gondor. He is also looked up to by his brother Faramir.

Boromir is tempted by the power of the One Ring. Though his original desire to possess the One Ring is altruistic (to help his people), he allows the desire to become an obsession. Though he had sworn to protect Frodo, Boromir becomes violent and tries to take the ring from him. Frodo escapes from Boromir by using the One Ring to become invisible.

Boromir comes to himself and feels remorse for his attack on Frodo. He dies with honor as he stands between Merry and Pippin and a host of Uruk-hai.

Gimli, though somewhat irascible by nature, is also loyal and staunch. He is the fifth block in The Fellowship of the Ring C2C Crochet Afghan.
