The Dark Crystal film has been a favorite of mine since it was released in 1982. When The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance aired, I was enthralled. It’s not surprising the rich imagery and captivating story inspired me to design. This cowl is inspired by the Drenchen Gelfling Clan who live in the swamp region of Thra. Their emblem has two shades of rich blue. Tall, thin cypress trees with graceful Spanish moss in those gorgeous blues framed in neat I-Cord edging.
