This is the scarf handmade from camel hair, a fabric renowned for providing exceptional warmth without excessive bulk. Handcrafted on the banks of the River Shannon by McKernan, a family-owned firm whose 19th century Hattersley and 80-year-old Donegal tweed looms weave intricate, impeccably tailored scarves. The camel’s soft, thick hairs allow them to thrive in harsh environments where temperatures plunge to -40º F and yield garments that deliver superior insulation and breathability. The scarf’s tight herringbone weave provides a reliable barrier against brisk winds that sweep onto Irish shores from the Atlantic or swirl along New York City streets. The scarf‘s selvage edge prevents unraveling and it is finished with hand-knotted fringe. Brown. 64" L x 9" W x 1" D. (5 oz.)
