Between East and West is a bit of an exploration of heritage, the movement of people and the melding of races, ideologies and cultures.
Between East and West features mitred segments linked together with intermittent bands of i-cords. The i-cord sections naturally result in a ‘V’ shape that keeps the form of the design fluid. The i-cords are worked in a contrasting colour, as are the i-cord cast/bind off at each end of the wrap.
To add further detail there are tassels attached to each of the three points.
