This Cowl / Poncho / Wrap / Caplet / Shawl hybrid is the result of my wish list for a winter accessory which sits round your neck as cosily as a scarf would, but without the need for constant readjustment or the risk of strangulation. I also wanted something that would keep your shoulders cosy but that would still sit comfortably under a big coat or over the top of a lighter jacket.

You can wear it poncho style or bring the fabric forward to drape over the chest like a more traditional cowl or scarf.
