Bold Red, Pink and Camel Check Wool Scarf

Strawberry red, candy-floss pink and a thread of butterscotch, like a jar of old-fashioned sweets in a seaside shop window, come together in our iconic check, bright, playful and a little bit nostalgic. Edinburgh Cashmere is a Scottish heritage brand, and this scarf shows how much fun the traditional pattern can be.

The scarf is handcrafted in extra fine pure lambswool at a Scottish mill that has been weaving for over 250 years. In the iconic check, wide red bands set the pace while the pink squares lighten the design, and fine golden-camel lines run through it all, giving the colours a warm, finished edge. Wear it with an ivory blouse and tailored navy trousers, an indigo denim dress and white trainers, or a black wrap top and wide-leg jeans. The fringe is striped in red and soft tan, a small, neat detail at each end.

It takes 29 steps to make, ending with a hand-brushing with teasels that gives the wool a light, fluffy softness. Cheerful, characterful and made to last, it’s a scarf that makes ordinary outfits look special.
