We took the Angler shawl and mirrored it to create a blanket! Worked from the center out with wide garter stripes this simple piece makes a grand statement. Our colors are inspired by the
iconic Hudson Bay Blanket, but the blanket would be just as
beautiful in a solid. Knit in our Heritage base, this woolly blanket will be an heirloom for years to come.
