The Vesper Shawl is a celebration of the Little Brown Bat, a vital part of our ecosystem that pollinates plants, disperses seeds, and is capable of eating more than 1,200 mosquitos in a single night. Designed to mimic the structure of a bat’s wings, the shawl is knit from the top down. This cape-like crescent shawl is designed to sit securely on your shoulders, or it can be worn with the ends criss-crossed across the front of your body and secured with a stylish shawl pin.
