Cornflower socks with poppies
The world of cornflowers and poppies is linked by the figure of Polnica. Originating from Kashubian folklore, the creature was counted among the field demons. Despite the menacing name, Polnica had no evil intentions. Just after a storm, she would mount her white steed and trot through the fields, blessing the crops. The harvest was supposed to be precisely due to her. However, an encounter with Polnica did not end well, especially for the young men. Rumor has it that the creature was wearing only a garland woven from cornflowers and poppies. The beauty of the field flowers emphasized the extraordinary beauty of the Huntress. Unfortunately, mortals could not bear so much beauty and under the gaze of the Huntress they fell breathless as if struck by lightning. Another folk legend tells the story of a fair-haired girl with eyes the color of cornflowers. The daughter of a farmer fell in love with a poor farmhand and wanted to marry him. Unfortunately, the father had other plans for his daughter and firmly forbade this union, and banished the farmhand himself from the village. The girl despaired every day for her lost love, and the tears that fell to the ground turned into flowers, the color of which brought to mind the eyes of the unhappy woman.
