French Knots for Team Canada at the FIFA Women's World Cup

As with all our pieces, these are great for parties, gifts, and confidence.

Nothing welcomes Spring back like seersucker: bold yet casual, and unanimously enjoyed. Wear one knowing that it was made by 2nd Generation tie-makers, pretty close to your home... globally speaking.
