This new bandana is an homage to my favorite historical quilt pattern: Delectable Mountains. Hand-drawn and lettered details reinterpret the charming “wonk” of this slashed rectangle quilt.

I love the name “Delectable Mountains” as much as the transfixing pattern. I began designing this bandana in the spring when I moved to Oregon, just days before the pandemic shutdown. In the book Pilgrim’s Progress the delectable mountains represent both hope and fear to the traveler. They are a sign that the destination is close, yet hold dangerous falls should a pilgrim stray from the path. I could see the Cascade Mountain peaks from my neighborhood bubble and yearned to explore them. Instead I stayed home, stayed vigilant, and tried to stay hopeful.

This is actually a fancy sailor knot that looks like a braid. The kit has everything you need to make a leather slide including detailed printed directions AND access to an online video tutorial. After making your first slide, you can continue to use the tools included in the kit to make more slides. (I’ve made napkin rings with the same technique.) It is honestly a little addicting.

COZY SCARF

Our collection takes inspiration from historic Appalachian coverlet patterns. These masterpieces were widely produced in family homes from the 1700s through the early 20th century. Particularly relevant is the work of Francis L. Goodrich, who recorded hand-drawn weaving drafts for the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild. Her work helped preserve Appalachian craft as it faced competition from commercial production.  

And like the historical double weave fabrics, this knitted scarf is “two-faced,” the colors inverting to create a light and dark side. You can read more about the history of two-faced fabric on the blog.

• 12" by 68"

• 100% Combed Cotton

• Made in New York, USA

• Machine wash in cold water with like items. Tumble dry on low heat.

This reversible scarf blends two inspirations; the artist Bridget Riley, a pioneer of the 1960s op-art movement, and historical handloom double-weave fabrics. Like Riley’s work this scarf uses repetitive black and white shapes to create an optical effect.
