Polka Dot Sheep is generously offering a 15% discount on their Stumptown DK until February 10, using code cablelove.

The Gellatly Nut Farm, located on the west side of Okanagan Lake, is one of the oldest working nut farms in Canada. The farm is home to over 800 nut trees and shrubs, including the beloved heartnut, named for its production of a nut that looks, both inside and out, like a heart.

This cozy cowl has an all-around heartnut inspired cable pattern and options for two lengths.
