Supersoft Merino Wool Harwell Snood

A snood should feel warm and cosy around your neck. So we’ve made our Harwell Snood from 100% Supersoft Merino Wool.

Soft on the skin and the thickness make for a great accessory to add some extra warmth to your outfit without an itchy neck.

Aran knitwear was first developed in the 1800s for fishermen in the Aran Islands, Ireland, and has since grown in popularity into a world-famous fashion item. Traditionally made from Merino Wool – which is softer than regular wool, making it an ideal fabric for warm garments.

The natural beauty of Aran Knitwear can be accredited to the attention to detail in the stitching. Every pattern carries symbolism which unites the knitwear with the heritage and history of the Aran Islands.
Our Harwell Snood features the ‘Diamond Stitch’. This pattern symbolises the shapes of the fishing mesh islanders used. As these fishing meshes were used to make a living – this signifies wealth and success.

You can be sure you’ll be kept warm in your Merino Wool. The wool contains a natural crimp, or air pockets, which can hold body heat around your body – keeping you exceptionally warm.
Despite this, Merino Wool is breathable as it can absorb 35% of its weight in moisture, which can then evaporate to release moisture.
Wool also has odour-resistant properties due to its natural antibacterial effects. Bacteria responsible for odours find it hard to stick due to the wool fibre structure, which makes it highly functional as you won’t have to wash it daily.

Choose from 4 colours – Pearl, Meadow Green, Navy and Slate Grey. We have a collection of Merino Wool garments which allow you to complete the look. Also, check out our Harwell Hat, a perfect pairing for your Harwell Snood.

Dry-clean or hand-wash only. Turn Inside out before washing. Use mild detergent. Do not rub, wring, spin, tumble dry or bleach. Reshape whilst damp and dry flat to restore shape. Iron on reverse.
