Oakshire Cowl
$7.00
This design is inspired by the changing of the seasons in the Pacific Northwest. The central leaf motifs reference a combination of several native trees as their leaves begin to turn and fall to the ground. The braided ribbing edge detail suggests the winding bare branches, while the bobbles represent the seeds of new beginnings.
