    About

    A long time ago, my father would plait three strands of red thread.
    The pretty bracelet he made would adorn my wrist: a red talisman meant to protect me while I was a child. 

    A symbolic and spiritual object, deeply intertwined with paganism and traditional folklore.
    A passing on of Ukrainian traditions, an extension of ancestral memory embodied in decorated eggs – pysanky, krashanky – Paska/Babka and other cakes, meats and horseradish.
    This is how my story began, which I in turn pass on today.

      You can find the ”Taking a Break”/ "Cable Paneled Sweater" pattern, designed by Debbie Bliss, on Ravelry and Lovecrafts.


      With Easter just around the corner, I highly recommend it: the pattern is free. !
