Helen Stewart says that her Spindrift Shawl design was "inspired by the expansive Pacific Ocean. The deep sea swell of the crescent shape is complemented by a deep eyelet border and picot edge which froths like the foam at the crest of a wave." I chose a soft wool with rainbow confetti on a sand-colored background because it reminded me of a favorite photograph from the Oregon coast showing iridescent bubbles on the rocks at high tide (picture of the picture included in the listing!). The crescent shape of the shawl measures 56" on top and bottom, and the body measures 16" at its widest point. The 3" eyelet border ends in a scalloped picot edge very much in keeping with the image of foam on the waves at high tide. This versatile shawl can be worn multiple ways - wrapped, tied, or secured with a beach-inspired shawl pin. It's lightweight, packs like a dream for travel, and looks absolutely stunning tied at the waist as a beach layer/coverup.
