Making a ‘Three-Legged’ St. Brigid’s Cross - an Easy Step by Step Guide

Here is another little video of me demonstrating how to make a ‘Three-Legged’ designed ’cross’ for St. Brigid’s Day. Although, this is technically not a cross as such however this is what we always called it and I can’t get my head around calling it anything else. This design was found in small pockets around the country and I’ve been making these for nearly 30 years. This is a little harder than the classic St. Brigid’s Cross but I have found young and old master it after a few attempts. There is a simplicity to this design which I really like and also the fact that it is not over ornate. Michael Fortune ()
