A hooded scarf that’s designed to look equally good with the hood up or down. The ends feature a simple shell pattern that’s echoed in the hood shaping and that can be worked in either direction which  means that the whole thing is worked in one piece. One end of the scarf is longer than the other to be wrapped around your neck once and the crossed over ends are fastened with a few pretty vintage buttons, keeping the chills away from your chest without any extra bulk.
