The name “Coquina” refers to a group of small mollusks. These little clam-like creatures have a wide variety of colors and patterns on their shells. I chose this name for my pattern because of the resemblance of the lace pattern to scallops, or other shell-bearing organisms.

This wrap, made out of soft, lightweight merino, is perfect for Spring and Fall, or even chilly summer nights.
