Kirkland is a place I love where I spend time shopping (think yarn!), walking the waterfront, dining with friends, or coffee at the Marina. I named this cowl after this city as its use is as diverse as its namesake. It’s a go anywhere, wear with anything accessory I can throw on with a tee shirt and down vest, layer with my favorite sweatshirt, or accessorize with my dress coat! It also makes a great gift when you’re not sure what someone’s style is!
