This shawl is named after the island furthest out in the Gothenburg archipelago. The island is famous for both having a lighthouse and the singer songwriter Evert Taube grew up there.
The stripes on the shawl reminds me of waves coming into shore and the photos were taken at – you guessed it! – Vinga island!
