Bedwyr Poncho

As a child I was obsessed with King Arthur and read as many versions of the Arthurian legends as I could get my hands on. And I always felt sorry for Bedwyr/Bedivere—the last knight of the Round Table left after Arthur’s departure for Avalon. This poncho is my tribute to Bedwyr; the steadfast, faithful last knight. The medieval-inspired cable panel lends an armorial look, while the comfortable silhouette and rustic yarn make it fit for all your daring adventures.
