This scarf features the Mirimay pattern - a mihi to my Nan (Miri) and Grandma (Ida May), creative and resilient wāhine, Māori and Scottish.
It combines poutama, the first tukutuku design my Nan taught me, with intersecting lines that reference Scottish tartan. It speaks to the passing of knowledge across generations, carried through whakapapa, memory, and making. The layout and composition are inspired by kōwhaiwhai principles - reflecting balance, flow, and repetition.
