Lighthouse Scarf
Traditional Herringbone Diamond Twill patterned scarf - Handwoven of British Wool with native Rare Breed Swaledale Aran yarn, including a trim detail in Kid Mohair/ Merino mix
With the cool hues of mizzle grey and sea-foam with a touch of glas' - that indistinguishable colour of the sea that you get here in Cornwall - that sea-grey-blue-green - we have tipped our caps to within the trim detail of the Lighthouse scarf
"The sound of the fog horn was prominent during my upbringing, I could hear it from where I lay in bed. The fog envelopes the rugged coast around Penwith and especially that of my little hometown of St. Just, as the locals well know. It’s always been a comfort knowing that the lighthouses are there to shepherd the ships as they pass, offering comfort and safety to those out there sailing on the big blue yonder.”
