Juno is the mother goddess of Roman mythology, and Juno Regina is Juno as queen of the Gods. Let the luxurious silk and wool of this wrap make you feel like a queen. Worn over a simple black dress, or as a draped scarf, it is elegant, functional and beautiful.

The idea for this piece began with the stitch pattern. I was inspired by the echoing diamond shapes within each motif and I love how they flow together when combined into an even larger diamond as they shape the ends of the piece itself.

The pointed ends of this piece are organic and simple to work, while still creating an interesting line in the finished product.

This piece can be worn as a stole or as a scarf, but it’s sure to make an impression either way.
