One of the most famous symbols for St Brigid is her cross. Here, you can learn how to make a St Brigid's Cross with Tom Doyle in this video from the National Museum of Ireland.
St Brigid was born in Dundalk in 450 AD St Brigid was the founder of the first monastery in County Kildare.
Her father was a pagan chieftain of Leinster and her mother was a Christian. St Patrick inspired her to spread the word of God.
Tom is based at the National Museum of Ireland Country Life near Castlebar, Co Mayo. In the video above he shows us how to make another version of the symbol, a three-armed cross.
