Having spent a good deal of time working on several amazingly beautiful farms, I have found them endless fonts of inspiration. The natural and cultivated world provide many of these inspirations. But many are also found in the old buildings and belongings of the farm. An old stack of textiles from days gone by, sitting on a picnic table
at sunset is an image that will be forever in my mind. Inspired by those old items that farms seem to collect, the Astrantia Pullover is both functional and graceful.
