Product Details
The Henwife Shawl is a generously sized 3/4 shawl designed to wrap around you and hang nicely on your shoulders much like a wrap or a blanket. I love to wear mine over my nightgown, when popping out to collect eggs or to the beach during chilly evening walks.
This shawl is inspired by the wise woman of its namesake, who is both a domestic matron and keeper of the hearth while also possessing knowledge of the old ways and secrets of the wild. She is a partner, a mother and a beloved member of the community while also embracing her role as a witch, a seer and possessor of magic. I believe there are many Hen Wives amidst us, tending to their communities while honouring the wild women within themselves.
