The Legend of the Felt Fox

The Legend of the Felt Fox

The fox watched all this and decided to be unruly and went to the house. The fox went to the sleeping boy and called, "wake up my little boy, wake up, come and play with me." The boy was still sleeping without waking up. But the fox lied, "My son, wake up, wake up, your mother has gone far, your mother has gone far."

Believing in these words, the boy began to cry, and the fox, who was afraid that his parents would wake up if he cried, said, "Sleep, little boy, sleep, mother has not gone far, she has not gone far." The boy, who was happy with these words, thought it was fun for the bored fox to smile in his dream, when the boy's father woke up with a sound, the fox ran away. Seeing this, the boy's father cleverly cut out a felt fox and hung it on his son.



The next day, the fox came again and saw that the felt fox was on top of the boy and said , "This boy is a fox," and left. Due to this myth, the practice of cutting a fox to protect the child from all evil and to make him healthy and strong is still used.

5 colored triangles or "pins" are made together when cutting and hanging the fox; The eternal sky is blue, the dry earth is green, the holy air is white, abundance is yellow, and the hearth is red.
