Pashmina Scarf – 30x150cm – 70% Cashmere/30% Silk – Brownie

Brownie is a light, milky brown with a camel warmth. The cashmere and silk blend gives it only a faint sheen, so the colour reads soft and nearly matt in most lights, much like a good suede. This brown cashmere scarf earns its keep all week, tucked into a navy coat or worn loose over an olive jacket.

It measures 30 × 150 cm: enough to wrap twice round the neck, small enough to forget in a coat pocket until you need it. The yarn is a 28-count, 2-ply blend of 70% cashmere and 30% silk, made in Nepal and finished with hand-twisted tassels. It is coloured with AZO-free Swiss dyes and can be machine washed, but please read our washing notes first.

Small-scarf reviewers talk about colour accuracy, softness and how useful the size is; Susan, who chose Heron, calls it a “Super size for everyday not too heavy”. Maria, writing about our Very Berry, said it is “more a matt finish, but still gorgeous”, a fair note that the sheen is subtle. Two buyers found it thinner than hoped; Brownie also comes as a large scarf, stole and shawl.
