Scandinavia and Siberia. Two places on the planet so far away and yet so close. The very nature and climate give rise to similar views, characters and motives. It is tenderness, beauty and attractiveness, but at the same time steadfastness, character and untamed power. I love it. You take this thing in your hands and feel its power. I really want to share this feeling with you. Because wild animals (especially foxes) can not be deprived of freedom;)

The product was tested in Instagram, my permanent group of testers. All works of my testers are placed (with their permission) on this page. According to the pattern, more than a hundred products are already knited. Most of them can be viewed in Instagram under the tag #foxes_lopy_kids. On the same tag you can find interesting color combinations:)

Yoke uses a foxes ornament based on the Claire Neicho pattern. Published with the author’s consent.
