INSPIRATION
For the last 20+ plus years I have made Vancouver, BC my home. One of my favorite places to visit is Granville Island - located right smack in the middle of it all, it has a ton of quirk, quaint little shops(such as infamous Maiwa!), a fun food marker and gorgeous views to spare.

When Yoriko from Fibre Arts Studio(located there!) contacted me about designing a shawl, I knew that i wanted something colorful and a bit different to match the personality of this beautiful landmark. So here it is! Quick, colorful and a joy to make!
