Inspired by the old Scottish legend of white heather, the Fields of Heather Blanket is a quiet celebration of love and hope.

According to the tale, a young woman named Malvina lost her one true love. As she wandered the moor in grief, her tears fell upon the purple heather beneath her feet, turning its blossoms white. In that moment, she wished that white heather would forever bring love and good fortune to those who found it.

The Fields Heather Blanket carries that same sense of tenderness and meaning. Delicate texture moves across the fabric like heather scattered over a windswept hillside, creating a design that feels both meaningful and timeless.

With every row, this blanket invites you to slow down, settle in, and create something meant to be held onto. Inspired by wild moors, enduring love, and the quiet pieces of beauty we carry with us.
