This shawl is named after scenic Beach Drive in Victoria, BC where the wind tousles your hair as you stroll along the ocean.

We chose complementary colours for this wrap for a subtle and sophisticated take on graphic colour-blocking.

A simple but bold piece, designed with TV knitting or chatting with friends in mind.
