The Norse Mythology Shawl
The shawl is an inspiration of Norse mythology.
In the middle of the shawl is Yggdrasil ( tree of life ) and above are Hugin and Munin which is Odin’s two ravens that every day brings news of the world . The two Old Norse names Hugin and Munin means : The thought and memory .
The intricate pattern is the Gordian knot ( a knot can not be untied ) and the cross is a version of the clover -leaf cross .
Sjalet er en inspiration af den nordiske mytologi.
I midten af sjalet er Yggdrasil (livets træ) og over det, sidder Hugin og Munin som er Odins to ravne, som hver dag bringer nyt fra verden. De to oldnordiske navne Hugin og Munin betyder: Tanken og Mindet.
Det snirklede mønster er den Gordiske knude ( en knude der ikke kan bindes op) og korset er en udgave af kløverbladskorset.
