The third exclusive surprise pattern from Classic Fantasy Shawls

This cowl is inspired by the beautiful warrior Sorsha from Willow.

Sorsha is a really interesting character. She is sent to capture the baby Elora Danan for her mother - the villainous Queen Bavmorda, but Sorsha soon sees the light and joins the heroes to defeat her. In the movie, Sorsha wears some gorgeous armour and has a chainmail cowl.

Knit from the top down, the cowl features ribbing, a lace body which mimics a chainmail effect, supported by columns of rivets. The cowl ends with a band of rivets and armour plates in the form of a pleat-like ribbing. A warm accessory for defeating an evil Queen, or perhaps to just defeat the cold!
