Pashmina Scarf – 30x150cm – 100% Cashmere – Rabbit

Rabbit is a quiet, mauve-tinted brown, somewhere between taupe and dusky plum, and cooler than most browns. A taupe cashmere scarf like this suits people who like their colour subtle. Wear it with jeans for a country walk, over a camel coat at the office, or beside burgundy to bring out its purple.

Its fibres, 14–16 microns across, come from Inner Mongolia, and the unbrushed cloth keeps its strength while softening with use. We weave it as a twill from a 2-ply yarn and twist the tassels by hand. The size, 30 × 150 cm, tucks into a jacket in one loop or wraps twice on a windy day.

Sue, who chose our Candied Ginger in this style, wrote: “Colour very subtle and even better than I expected”. Not everyone agrees on colour, and a couple found theirs differed from the photo, so with a subtle shade like Rabbit the swatchbook is worth ordering. Light and fine, this cloth left a few buyers wishing for something thicker or longer; Rabbit is also made as a large scarf (45 × 200 cm) and a stole (70 × 200 cm).
