WHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS
- Supersoft, finely spun merino wool feels comfortable against the skin, with natural insulation and breathability for lightweight warmth.
- The traditional herringbone weave creates a subtle textured pattern, enhanced by a darker contrast stripe along the edge.
- Lightly felted after weaving, for extra warmth and an exceptionally soft and luxurious finish.
- Generously sized at 180 x 70cm, this extra wide merino wool scarf can be wrapped, folded or draped as a lightweight stole for versatile everyday styling.
- The natural Charcoal Grey melange combines undyed wool in subtly varying grey tones.
ABOUT THE COLOURWAY
Charcoal Grey is a natural melange, with subtle variations from mid-grey to mid charcoal within the wool itself giving the colour depth and character. The herringbone weave adds a subtle textured pattern to the softly felted fabric, while a darker weft is introduced along the edge to create a defined contrast stripe. Understated and versatile, this tonal grey colourway pairs easily with black, navy, denim and natural winter neutrals.

HANDMADE IN NEPAL
Our scarves are finely handwoven by skilled artisans at a small workshop in the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal. Working to fair trade principles, the workshop combines traditional weaving skills with careful, small-scale production on wooden looms. For patterned scarves, the yarns are dyed before weaving, while single-colour scarves are woven first and then dyed as a complete piece. Ombré colourways are created through careful hand dip-dyeing to achieve their gradual colour transitions. Each scarf is individually finished and checked by the workshop team.
MATERIAL, CRAFT & NATURAL VARIATION
Our handwoven accessories are made from supersoft, finely spun, non-mulesed merino wool. Naturally insulating, breathable, elastic and resilient, merino wool provides warmth without unnecessary bulk, with a soft, comfortable feel against the skin. Wool naturally resists odours and requires relatively infrequent washing. Natural shades of grey, brown and cream are undyed, while other colours are created using azo-free dyes.
MORE ABOUT THE ARTISAN PROCESS
- Preparing the looms: Fine merino wool yarn is wound onto bobbins and the wooden handlooms are prepared: the warp yarn is arranged to create the structure, width and pattern of the finished design.
- Weaving by hand: Each scarf is finely handwoven on a traditional wooden loom by a skilled artisan. The weaving is controlled by hand, gradually building the yarn into a beautifully lightweight and even fabric.
- Dyeing the fabric: Single-colour scarves, apart from those in natural melange shades, are individually dyed and washed by hand. Ombré colourways are carefully dip-dyed by hand to create their gradual colour transitions.
- Finishing & pressing: Each scarf is carefully finished by hand and pressed by the workshop team.
