***this listing is for a digital PDF of the Corvids, 19 pattern***
The Corvids, 19 Cowl was born out of pure existential boredom while self-isolating at home during the COVID-19 pandemic. It began with the name, which popped into my head unbidden one day, and I knew I had to make it into reality. The design features repeated silhouettes of crows (or, scientifically, corvids), swirling smoke, and geometric shapes – and, prominently, conspicuously, a single blank space that leaves the wearer with exactly 19 corvids.
