🧭 Northern Viking Compass
I've always been fascinated by early navigation. To honor those who can find their way using the stars, wind, water, sand, or trees (while I somehow manage to get lost even with Google Maps in front of my nose! 😊), I’ve designed a legendary Northern Viking Compass featuring runes.
