This plant is not easy, it has an interesting legend and history. On the one hand, the Thistle is a spiny herbaceous plant, a weed with which many struggle constantly, and with another - it is much adored a plant that is depicted on the emblem of Scotland and is their symbol. In honor Thistle called order of knighthood is "Thistle". The motto of the order - no one touches me with impunity.

They say that the spikes hides a sensitive soul, capable of self-sacrifice and mutual assistance. In the Christian symbolism of its thorns symbolize the passion of Jesus Christ, and sin, malice, encroaching on virtue (job 31). This plant was used in religious ceremonies, as the grass is able to banish evil spirits and evil in General.

This program is usually installed on all operating systems by default. You need to download the archived file to your computer and unzip it. Also in this folder there is a pdf file, where there is a calculation of the length of the floss for this design.
