Coming Up Spring – 209

Designed by Maureen Clark

Early crocus and daffodils are welcome harbingers of Spring and beautiful botanical lace work frames this light cardigan reminding us that summer’s blossoms lie ahead. When temperatures start to climb, lighter weight layers are called for and this open cardigan will be one you reach for to throw over your shoulders for the perfect touch of comfortable warmth.

Athens Key Hat – 203

Designed by Cap Sease

The garter slip stitch creates a bold design that makes this hat distinctive and stylish. Its cushy thickness will keep your head and ears warm on the coldest of winter days.
