The Iroquois word Conewago translates to “where the rapids meet.” The Conewago Creek, which is the inspiration for the sweater, flows from its headwaters in Adams County, Pennsylvania, before meeting up with the Susquehanna River in eastern York County. As it descends through the rocky pass of the South Mountains, it crashes through what locals call the Narrows, then takes on a more leisurely meander. I cross the creek multiple times daily, and it is always a pleasure to hear its burbling music, enjoy its changing habitat, and watch the wildlife drawn to it.

This boxy tunic has dropped shoulders with a textured yoke, split
hem, and cuffs. It also sports a lace panel on the back for added interest, and lots of positive ease gives it a super comfortable fit.
