Baba Yaga is a witch-like character from Slavic folklore. She lives in an iconic hut that wanders around the woods on chicken legs. Those who wish to enter her hut must say the phrase “Hut, hut, turn your back to the forest, your front to me”. This pattern is for a mini version of her hut that you can perch wherever you please. There are two versions included in this pattern - a sitting and standing option.
