Cowichan Hawk Cardigan
This sweater was inspired by the Native American sweater style called Cowichan but with a definite Seattle flair.
Cowichan sweaters are typically done with roving style wool in at least two different natural colors and has a signature
shawl collar. The Cowichan Hawk Sweater follows the design queues in construction, styling, and shape but it embodies
the 12 th Man spirit. Go Hawks!
