Product Details

This shawl design was inspired by two things: one, Akira Kurosawa's film "Yojimbo", (a personal favorite), and two, a desire to interpret elements of Japanese Sashiko embroidery in knitted color work. Many Sashiko motifs are evocative of natural features such as mountains, mountain trails and still and flowing water. I imagined a thrifty Japanese housewife salvaging useful kimono scraps to make a handy and beautiful wrap to wear on cold, rainy days.
