PÓLSTJARNA PEYSA by Hanne Rimmen

PÓLSTJARNA peysa by Hanne Rimmen Pólstjarna means North Star and is a beautiful tribute to Iceland's maritime history and the god of the sea, created as a protective woollen shield for fishermen in the harshest conditions at sea. In the intro to the pattern, Hanne writes: "When darkness fell over the open ocean, it was the night sky's constellation that served as the sailors' most vital navigation tool, guiding them safely home to port." The pattern can be purchased directly from the designer using the button below.
