Linhope Scarf

Linhope Scarf

£5.00Price

  • Named after a natural beauty spot near Stella’s home in Northumberland, Linhope evokes the rippling water of the burn as it recovers from the dramatic descent of the waterfall into a natural plunge pool, which draws locals to while away summer afternoons in happiness. 
    Offered in two different yarn weights and sizes.
