Inspired by a lucky swap shop find, this hooded scarf has become a true wardrobe staple. Perfect across the seasons, it offers just the right amount of warmth—from cool evenings to colder winter days when you need an extra cosy layer.

The fabric lies flat and sits comfortably around the neck, making it easy to wear under jackets or layered with other garments. Worked in double moss stitch with a lightweight yet chunky yarn, it creates a beautifully textured fabric that knits up quickly—so you can have your own snug essential in no time.
