  1. In Iceland, if you have not been good over the year, you are in danger of being eaten by a mythological cat. #Jólakötturinn en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yule_cat

  5. Having made a #Krampus quilt and a #Gävlebocken quilt, I started mulling #MariLwyd or #Jólakötturinn for possible projects and checked to see what other people had done in this area

    I didn't find quilts for either, but this is some really cool #embroidery by kittermeowmix on Reddit

    (A Christmas cat quilt might yet be in my future - I have a void kitty who could model 🧐)

  6. The Yule Cat (Jólakötturinn) is a giant cat in Icelandic folklore, that roams around the countryside at Yuletide. The Yule Cat looks for people who are not nicely dressed in new clothes for the festivities and swallows them whole. 🐈‍⬛

  7. We’ve got lots of holiday #cryptids. Theres #Krampus, and then there is #Jólakötturinn who eats you if you don’t wear your #Christmas clothes. We need one for people who don’t use the sex toys they were given for Christmas. Maybe it strikes you at some random point in the coming week, making you walk funny and you have no idea why. Like an oddly sexual Boxing Day maybe.

    Yeah, this is the kind of thing I think about from time to time. ;) #holidays #WalkFunny #WhatHappenedToYou

  8. Our Icelandic Yule Cat is now up on the tree.

    The Yule Cat, known as Jólakötturinn, is a huge and vicious cat who is described as lurking about the snowy countryside during Christmas time and eating people who have not received any new clothes to wear before Christmas Eve.

    Make sure you are gifted some new clothes this year to ensure you're not eaten!

  13. #Jólakötturinn - The Yulecat from Iceland. If you don't get colorful new clothes for Christmas, it eats you.

  14. #Jólakötturinn or the #Yule Cat is from Icelandic #folkore and is a monstrous #demon #cat who eats people who haven't received new clothes to wear by #Christmas eve. It was popularised by the poems of Jóhannes úr Kötlum. One of my cute and #creepy #horror inspired Xmas #art cards this year!
