Moraines are formed as rocks and sediment are carried down by glaciers, deposited on its edges as ridges. MORAINE features texture inspired by these formations of earth and stone, with garter ridges to represent avalanche paths. With unique corner to corner construction, this shawl was knit and designed in British Columbia and the southern coast of Iceland. MORAINE will keep you warm and inspired wherever your adventures take you.
