Product Type: Scarves & Wraps

This cashmere scarf is big enough to be a wrap: 79 inches long and 26 inches wide, in a soft heather gray with fringed ends. Pokhara Nepal Artisans list it as 100% cashmere and describe each one as handloomed, which is why they note small differences in color and pattern from scarf to scarf. Wear it wound around the neck on a cold walk or open over your shoulders like a light shawl indoors.

  • Scarf and wrap. At 26 inches wide it opens into a shawl that covers the shoulders and upper arms.
  • Folds to fit. Folded in half lengthwise it becomes a 13 inch wide scarf that still wraps twice.
  • Heather hides lint. The mixed gray tone forgives the odd fiber and goes with black, navy, camel and white.

Wearing a Blanket Scarf Three Ways

How to wear a blanket scarf of 79 by 26 inches has three good answers. Open, draped around the shoulders with one end tossed back, it is a wrap for a cool office or a restaurant. Folded lengthwise and looped once with both ends hanging in front, it fills the neckline of a coat. Wrapped twice and tucked, it becomes a warm collar on a windy day. The extra width is what makes one piece cover all three jobs.

What Makes Cashmere Feel Warm

Cashmere comes from the soft undercoat of cashmere goats, and its fibers are finer than most sheep wool. Fine fibers trap more still air for their weight, which is why cashmere feels warm without feeling heavy, and why it sits softer against the neck than coarser wool. The brushed surface you see in the close-up photo is part of that softness.

Keeping Cashmere Soft for Years

The label gives two choices: dry clean, or hand wash cold and lay flat to dry. Hand washing keeps cashmere softer over the years, because it skips the solvents of dry cleaning. Use cool water and a wool or cashmere wash, squeeze the water out inside a rolled towel, then dry it flat, far from radiators and sun. Between wears, fold it rather than hanging it, so the weight of the fringe does not stretch the length.

Heather Gray Cashmere Wrap Notes

Why does cashmere shrink in the wash? Heat and rubbing together make the fibers lock and felt. Keep the water cool and the handling gentle, never use hot water, never wring, and never put it in a dryer.

Will a cashmere scarf pill? All cashmere pills a little where it rubs, usually under a coat collar or a bag strap. A cashmere comb lifts the small balls off in a minute, and pilling slows after the first few washes.

Who is this scarf made by? The label says its weavers are people with disabilities trained through a local nonprofit, and that a share of the work goes back into that community. The maker calls the scarf unisex, and the gray suits any coat.
