With an interplay of multiple colors and textures, this oversized blanket shawl shows Woolstok at it’s best. In thinking about the previous year and the challenges our world has faced, we are so grateful that in times of crisis our community comes together. Instead of letting our differences be a source of division, we respect differences and use them to illuminate our vibrant community. This shawl brings together distinct colors and textures to illustrate our gratitude for our different lived experiences and the way we can come together to thrive.
