Dana just finished up knitting this amazing bike cowl prototype. It uses warm wool in cool stripes that coordinate with anything and brighten up the gloomy fall weather here in the Northwest! (Okay, it was pretty sunny the day we took these pictures, but that's unusual for this time of year!) The cowl features a bandana style that is smaller in the back and shaped bigger in the front to fit better while leaning over on your bike, and provides nice wind and cold protection for your front neck and chest. It can be pulled up over your face and easily pulled back down when needed. The wool is warm and breathable, perfect for helping to regulate your body temperature during those chilly downhill coasts or uphill climbs! I love this one and can't wait to see what other color combos she comes up with! Check out the Etsy store for these cowls coming soon, and our current selection of wallets, wrist pouches, and saddle covers!
It's so exciting to see these products come together! I love the colors, fabrics, and styles we've chosen and I can't wait to use them myself and send them off to you to enjoy as well! Today I'm working on some thin cotton bandanas/scarves/hankies that are perfectly versatile for the changing season! Wear it under your helmet for some rain and mist protection (or to keep your ears warm!); wear it tied around your neck as an extra layer of wind resistance, or tuck it in your pocket for those downhill sniffles! This thin colorful scarf packs down small, can be thrown in the washer, and is just the right size for a grab and go Fall accessory on any commute or quick trip. Embroidered by hand from an original drawing of a vintage bike, each one is different and unique! Scarves in color combos to complement our wallets and bags will be available on the Etsy site next week! Check out the current product list here, happy riding!
