Stay toasty in a handmade wool knit balaclava hood designed for everyday wear. This brown hood is knit with one strand of superwash merino and one strand of premium cashmere, creating a soft, dense fabric that blocks wind without feeling bulky. The cable edge frames the face, and you can choose an optional sherpa fleece lining if you like extra coziness on very cold days. Features: - Knit with superwash merino wool and a strand of pure cashmere (majority merino for structure, cashmere for softness) - Optional sherpa fleece lining for added warmth and comfort - Framing cable knit edge and oversized body - Fits most adult heads (designed with a bit of ease for layering) - Machine washable on cold, delicate cycle; lay flat to dry Four ways to wear (and more): - Full coverage: Raise the hood and neck warmer for protection against wind and snow. - Chic turtleneck: Fold the neck warmer down for a snug turtleneck style. - Classic balaclava: Tuck the neck warmer in for a traditional winter look. - Relaxed scarf: Let the hood drape back for a casual, scarf‑like feel. - Layer over a beanie or thin hat for extra warmth on very cold days. This makes a thoughtful gift for someone who lives in their winter knits, prefers natural fibers, and appreciates slow, small‑batch making. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Note: Actual colors may vary slightly due to your display. * Only the balaclava hood is included in your purchase.
