Thistle, Scotland's national flower, symbolically represents bravery and valor. The Cluaranach boasts these prickly leaves that accent the unique allover lace pattern, providing gorgeous visual interest that drapes with ease. Available as a cozy scarf or wrap (in two sizes) in fingering yarn features beautiful thistle motifs and garter stitch selvedges. This wrap is worked in two halves from hem to center back, then grafted.
