This time my own design freebie week leads us to the NorthernLights. These special dancing lights have always fascinated humans; with fear or admiration. In Finland we know that fox caused this phenomenon. That's why we call them in Finnish "revontulet" which means Fox's Fires. Here's a tiny keyring chart for you to carry the fire with you to enlighten the darkness.

Pull It On (free chart)
The meaning of woollen pullover is measureless. In the world the folklore fashion is rising up its head again with pullovers. Well, in Finland they have always been in fashion. Visit Finland to understand why! I must confess I have more woollen pullovers than I have shoes!

Cloudberry (free chart)
Cloudberry is very important berry. We say it is very honored berry because you need to make a bow to each one before you pick it up. It really is so, they are picked up by fingers one by one and each one needs a bow. This is our yellow gold. See the picture of Stitched Cloudberry.

Swans and Foxes (free chart)
Today we meet my own design Swans and Foxes. The whooper swan is Finland's national bird. In Finland Fox is part of many sagas and mythology . They both play important role in our nature. Fox would love to have a proper steak but swan is very strong bird and can easily tread fox under the water and make it drown if it tries to catch swan by swimming.
