The Albion Basin lies in Little Cottonwood Canyon at the south end of Salt Lake City. In the winter it is completely covered in the same deep snow that brings skiers from all over the world. But when the snow melts in the late spring, this picturesque valley is covered in a stunning display of wildflowers. Steep mountains rise on either side, but the Albion Basin blooms unabashedly.

This shawl is a half-circle shape completely covered in elegant lace with i-cord edges and bind-off to give it a polished look. The lace evokes the mountains and the flowers of its namesake for a statement piece you’ll be proud to wear.
