There is beauty to be found in our own backyard. The contrasting textures of poplar leaves are echoed in Wyke’s striking panel of lace chevrons, accompanied by bark-like ridges of garter stitch. With heathered colorways evoking all the hues of nature, woolen-spun Shelter knits up into a light and lofty fabric, generously sized to toss around your shoulders on changeable spring days.
