River birch trees almost speak to you, with their rustling birch paper, swaying of branches, and the constant dropping of their leaves. River Birch Walk depicts walking alongside these majestic beauties on the right side of pattern and peeling bark on the wrong side.

Pattern is easily customizable to make wider or narrower by adding or subtracting pattern repeats.
