Fylgja
The Fylgja shawl is part of the beautiful and unique knitting book named Sjaler Nordfra in Danish and Nordic Shawls in English.
The book has 18 gorgeous shawls designed by Karen S. Lauger, inspired by the wild Nordic nature and the stories of the creatures that live there.
Fylgja are little, invisible spirits in Scandinavian folklore. They follow people or families throughout their lives. They can take the shape of animals, showing themselves at the birth of a child, and reflect the character and status of the child.
Fylgja er usynlige, overnaturlige væsen, der knytter sig til personer eller slægter og ledsager dem gennem livet. De kan tage form af dyr, der viser sig ved barnets fødsel og afspejler barnets karakter og tilhørsforhold.
