‘Sorcha,’ he whispered, and realised that he had called her so a moment before. Now, that was odd; no wonder she had been surprised. It was her name in Gaelic, but he never called her by it. He liked the strangeness of her, the Englishness. She was Claire, his Sassenach.

~ Diana Gabaldon, The Fiery Cross, Pg 254 (5th book in the Outlander series) ~

The Sorcha Shawl was inspired by my favourite book series and TV show, Outlander.

Sorcha is the Gaelic name that Jamie calls Claire. It means brightness, light.
