I used a large number of sources in writing the pysanky in this section, published and unpublished. Many of the pysanky were repeated from one source to another, as newer authors looked to older ones for traditional Volynian designs. I will try and place pysanky in the galleries based on the earliest known source for their design.

My sources include the following books and booklets:
