A merino snood and beanie – soft merino that does not prickle, even on sensitive skin
A closed 35 x 140 cm loop with a beanie hat to match. The snood goes on over the head in one movement – no ends to tie. Both pieces are knitted in garter stitch. It does not prickle, and that makes it comfortable. The yarn has no long hair to it, so it does not shed onto your clothes and it does not pill.
The beanie is knitted 26 cm high, so it sits loosely at the back rather than clinging to the head. One size: the knit gives and holds that shape instead of stretching out.
Choose the set, the snood on its own, or the beanie on its own – the option list says which one you are buying.
It is knitted to shape – fully-fashioned, never cut out of a length of knitted fabric – and wherever the knit is joined it is hand-linked: the open stitches are fed onto the linking machine one loop at a time, so the join stretches with the knit.
It is hand-finished and hand-steamed, then washed before it leaves the workshop, so it arrives at its true size and stays there. The yarn is spun in Italy.
I design every piece myself, and it is knitted in a small workshop here in Lithuania – a few at a time, never off a production line.
Every piece passes through my hands before it is packed – I check each one myself before it goes out.
It arrives in a plain brown box with the care card inside and nothing else – no filler paper, no leaflets. That is a choice, not a saving – I would rather use less than print something that is made to be thrown away.
Color – black.
