This men's scarf is knitted of 100% Collie underfur with addition of merino wool. The underfur is spinned with sewing reinforced thread and rubbered into 2 threads. Collie underfur of grey colour with some difference of tins can be clearly seen on the photos. The yarn is soft, silky and not ticklish that is especially important for such accessory as neck is considered to be a place with high sensitivity.
Snood is a modern and stylish accessory for cold season. It accomplishes two functions: collar and scarf. That means snood guards the neck as well as the breast from wind. Snood is knitted in such a way that a double-ribbing goes over its upper side inside of which there is a regulable cord for closer fitting if it's necessary. This model is simple and comfortable and will be ideal for men as well as for women.
This snood is knitted with 'double-tail' pattern. It has some advantages. Firstly, it looks great. The pattern will adorn every work if yarn is straight, not thick, and a work is knitted closely. But there is another advantage - 'double-tail' pattern implies combination of front and back side mashes which creates ribbing effect. It's one of the best choices for snoods, dickies, scarves and other tight-fitting works. Hence, the snood resulted in a peculiar, loose-fitting, elastic, soft and warm accessory.
The work doesn't have any signs of dog wool smell, as it has two stages of washing: firstly the yarn itself is washed, then the finished work goes washing. I don't use cutted wool, only underfur.
