We have this little guy up on our tree. Þvörusleikir (Spoon-Licker) is the Yule Lad who arrives on 15th Dec. Spoon-Licker was known for being tall, thin, and for stealing long wooden spoons to lick them, hoping to taste something sweet.

And the final #YuleLad arrives and joins his brothers. This is Kertasníkir who likes to steal tallow candles and eat them.

We have him up on the tree! Skyrgámur, the Skyr Gobbler, is here! The 8th Yule Lad arrives on Dec 19, sneaking into larders to devour barrels of skyr, Iceland's beloved thick dairy treat. Watch out for your supplies!
