Marimekko’s Tasaraita shirt
One year at the Laskiainen Party, we took this great picture.
:
Let us take another, bigger one this year. So, I ask everybody who has a Marimekko’s Tasaraita shirt to wear it.
If you do not have a Tasaraita, please, wear some other Finnish shirt if you have, like this shirt Jukka wore last year: “A Finn’s Feelings.”
