Puffins Hoy Shawl

The rugged landscape and beauty of the Old Man of Hoy, a towering sea stack off the coast of Orkney, is showcased in this fabric. The honey-coloured background symbolises the warm tones of the sandstone cliffs where a lively colony of puffins call home. The puffins are depicted with black eco cotton, bringing out the distinct outlines and features, with their stomachs and faces in ecru organic combed cotton.

Woven using our Hybrid technique, this allows us to use multiple colours to highlight different areas of the pattern, the finer yarns and denser weave structure create a supportive and unique fabric. 

Eco cotton is made up of 40% BCI Organic Cotton & 60% Recycled Cotton. The recycled cotton comes from pre consumer & post consumer cotton scraps which are blended and spun together to create this recycled yarn.

By using BCI cotton we ensure that our cotton meets the Better Cotton Initiative’s high standards of environmental, economic and social responsibility. Our BCI cotton is also organic, meaning it is grown with care and without chemicals keeping the land, and farmers, healthy.
