The defining feature of Lemko style pysanky is the series of tear-shaped lines. Out of these lines, symmetric patterns are made on the egg representing nature. To make the tear-shaped lines, the drop-pull method is used. Join us to learn this method and make your own Lemko pysanka, using a wax-resist method!
