“The whole skin has this delightful sensitivity; it feels the sun, it feels the wind running inside one's garment, it feels water closing on it as one slips under - the catch in the breath, like a wave held back, the glow that releases one's entire cosmos, running to the ends of the body as the spent wave runs out upon the sand. This plunge into the cold water of a mountain pool seems for a brief moment to disintegrate the very self; it is not to be borne: one is lost: stricken: annihilated. Then life pours back.” Nan Shepherd, The Living Mountain

The Feshie Shawl is inspired by the flow of Highland rivers: the meandering tributaries; the large smooth pebbles; and the small islands and inlets. These ideas translate into the shawl design through lacy sections which contrast with opaque garter stitch shapes, and winding stocking stitch columns, which continue horizontally across the whole expanse of the shawl.
