Nanny McBride sailed out of Northern Ireland for Canada when she was just 18 years old. We can only imagine her thoughts and feelings as she watched the Irish coastline disappear, heading towards her new life in Montreal.
This cowl was designed to celebrate the seascape of Ireland and honour Nanny McBride.
Olann is a beautiful, hand dyed Irish wool that accentuates the stitch work beautifully. It is worked in the round.
