POIBLEOG COWL

With textured lacework that evokes the graceful forms of poplar tree foliage, 
this warm and airy cowl is perfect for chilly walks down tree-lined country 
lanes.

A lovely accessory for the transitional seasons, as well as a quick ‘palate cleanser’ project.

Poibleog means ‘poplar’ in Irish Gaelic and is pronounced something akin to
 ‘pub-log’
