SCARVES
Scarves can play many roles …as thick and fierce protection from winter winds, or as light warmth and style over indoor clothes. Wool scarves can extend to either purpose in the choice of fiber and fiber blend, in the structure and the density of the weaving. Stay warm this winter, indoors and out, in local Hudson Valley wools.
Merino Herringbones: These winter wear scarves provide an excellent soft but substantial source of protection from the winter cold. Wrapped under your winter coat, the cozy densely woven fabric won’t let the lights breath of cold air down your neck! Studio dyed after weaving, these scarves play the ordered regimentation of the herringbone pattern against the random swirls of color variation.
