Description

This minimalist print celebrates the Scots saying 'ye cannae make a silk purse oot o' a sow's lug', glossed as a reminder that some things can't be made fancy – and that's perfectly fine. Clean black type on white makes it a charming gift for anyone with Scottish roots or a love of Scots humour.
