    Get Cozy With Spratters and Jane!

    With only two real months of winter left, lets embrace the cold and take advantage of the short time we have to don our favorite cold-weather accessories–boots, hats, gloves, and best of all, SCARVES!

    Spratters & Jane creates hand-crocheted scarves ideal for braving the bitter cold, with a stylistic edge. Designer, Rachael, believes that “a great scarf is essential to keeping one warm in the colder months. Anyone can have the most interesting clothes underneath their coat, but its what’s on top that has the most impact”.

     

    So, make a statement this winter with Spratters & Jane, available online and in NYC at International Playground (Stanton/Bowery).
