This double-layer bandana-shaped cowl is light as a feather yet deceivingly warm. The texture from the combination of soft merino wool and the delicate mohair-silk blend creates a luxurious feel against the skin, making it perfect for both chilly days and stylish layering. The subtle color variations in the yarns create a stunning effect reminiscent of natural granite and wood grain.
