Thistle and Rose Shawl

The thistle flower is often seen as a symbol of courage, resilience, and strength . It was adopted as the national emblem of Scotland in the 12th century

The rose is the national flower of England. It has many meanings depending upon its color, among these are love, honor , wisdom.

The marriage of the thistle and rose in 1502 symbolized the marriage of the Scottish king James IV to Margaret Tudor, afterwards known as the Queen of Scots.

This shawl is the perfect shape. It remains in place over the shoulders, with or with out a clasp and keeps your shoulders warm while providing unrestricted arm movement.
