Brick Road
The inspiration for this scarf came from designer Sara Ottosson’s journey as a knitter, and especially where they began — in school, making a garter stitch scarf that they hated. With this scarf, Sara wanted to remake that memory, but with the knowledge and inspiration they had gained. The name Brick Road is an hommage to the film The Wizard of Oz. The slip stitch pattern reminded Sara of bricks laid out in a herringbone pattern.
