Wingle Hoodie
Scotland’s landscape has been shaped by water and this sleeveless hoodie has been named after the Scots for a meander in a river: wingle. Like a winding river, you will be shaping this garment using an abundance of short rows – on the saddles, yoke and hood, working back and forth to create a miniature landscape in hoodie form.
