Look up in the Sky, It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a … Swuana??
Conifers is more than a ruana, but not quite a sweater, giving this garment various options for wearing. It features a pretty tree motif of Conifers which have a superpower all their own. They stand sentinel regardless of the season. In the summer they provide cool shade and are silhouetted at night under a star filled sky. In winter they provide a windbreak and shelter wildlife as snowflakes fall to grace their boughs. Regardless of how you choose to wear it, Conifers is a versatile addition to your wardrobe and perfect for seasonal weather transitions.
