Donwell Cable Scarf
‘A classic and understated keyhole scarf with subtle honeycomb and fine twisting cables’

The scarf has a classic keyhole shape and with a honeycomb central cable and 2 and 3-stitch border cables to create an elegant and considered design. One end threads through the other to fit neatly under coats and jackets.
