The rushnyk is a symbol of Ukraine, which connects people with their ancestors. Every rushnyk is like a novel about life, nature, people, and traditions. The rushynk is embroidered with symbols and cryptograms of the ancient world. Each region has its own designs and patterns with hidden meaning, passed down from generation to generation. Almost every Ukrainian wedding ceremony will see the couple step on the embroidered cloth before they take their vows. Traditionally the one who steps first will be the leader in couple. It seems that the groom almost always lets the bride step on the cloth first, a gesture that is both respectful and endearing.
