Girls Just Want to have Fundamental Human Rights. Fight Like a Girl.
I designed this flowy pink scarf as a remembrance and reminder of the historic "pussy hat" women's marches that took place around the world on January 21st 2017. And for all girls everywhere.
The perfect size to tie jauntily around your neck. When the spirit moves you, untie it and wave it as a banner. An anthem.
This lovely chiffon scarf was inspired by two pieces of embroidery; the blue stitched by Aagje Tiket; the linen piece from the Industrial School for Girls in Rotterdam.
This chiffon scarf was inspired by a cable sample that I knit in Fisherman's Wool.
The design for this chiffon scarf started out as a sketchbook prompt for "roses" and was inspired by a bit of Mary Oliver poetry:
"Wild roses," I said to them one morning. "Do you have the answers? And if you do, would you tell me?"
The roses laughed softly. "Forgive us," they said. "But as you can see, we are just now entirely busy being roses."
