The beginning of spring is marked by the first hints of green and the early-opening blossoms of the year. Signs that nature is awakening and, before long, bees start buzzing. Honeycomb will soon be harvested from hives, revealing an iconic shape that’s dripping with Nature’s sweetness. As it is sliced, honey runs from perfectly straight ridges. These amazing pollinators and their ingenuity inspired this shawl, Slice of Honey.
