What better way to celebrate the great things grown in Oregon than with a slice of marionberry pie? The marionberry was developed at Oregon State University in 1945 by crossing a Chehalem blackberry with an Olallieberry and named after Marion County in Oregon. It is considered the queen of blackberries around the world. Our luscious cowl is a combination of a simple berry stitch and twisted lattice motif so you can think about marionberry pie even when they’re out of season! The cowl is designed to be a close fit to keep you cozy all winter, but it is easily adjustable, and could even be made into a long scarf or baby blanket.
