Featuring the cable stitch genius of Annie Maloney, our neck warmer celebrates Portland’s Springwater Corridor, a 21.5 mile pedestrian trail that follows the old Springwater Division Rail Line from the downtown banks of the Willamette all the way east to Boring, Oregon. Along the way the trail winds through nature areas, parks, and many of SE Portland’s most popular neighborhoods. Enjoyed by bicyclers and joggers alike, those adventurous enough to tackle the entire trail will be rewarded with stunning views of Mount Hood.
