This Harlequin motif is inspired by the chequered costume of the comic mischievious character of the Italian Commedi dell’arte - a multi-coloured patchwork of colour.

The design mirrors the playfulness of Harlequin, who traditionally carried a “slapstick”, a magic wand that could change the scenery of the play.

Speaking in regional dialect, skipping and turning cartwheels he brought playfulness and joy – so have fun!

Arlequin, sautillant et tournant des roues apportait la joie - alors amusez-vous!

Deux couleurs sont travaillés sur chaque rang, les couleurs tenus derrière pour créer un tissu léger de double couche - de bonne isolation pour les jours frais.
