Sampo
On the third night Ilmarinen,
Bending low to view his metals,
On the bottom of the furnace,
Sees the magic Sampo rising,
Sees the lid in many colors.
Quick the artist of Wainola
Forges with the tongs and anvil,
Knocking with a heavy hammer,
Forges skilfully the Sampo;
On one side the flour is grinding,
On another salt is making,
On a third is money forging,
And the lid is many-colored.
Kalevala, Rune X
This scarf has a bold textural pattern and subtle lustre that wouldn’t be out of place on the legendary salt-mill that shares its name. At 11’’ wide and nearly six feet long, it’s well proportioned for men and women.
Instructions are presented as straightforward charts.
