Beach Vibes

Garter stitch stripes bring to mind traditional nautical jumpers–mix these with lace patterns depicting tiny waves and seafoam and this shawl is definitely putting out beach vibes!

Designed to highlight the gorgeous drape of Holston, Beach Vibes is a great addition to your summer wardrobe. The cozy silk/wool blend will keep you warm when you wear your sleeveless top into a well air-conditioned restaurant or workplace.
