Alpaca snood in 100% baby alpaca

Perfect for keeping your neck warm, with no gaps for wind to get through! These snoods are easier than a scarf - they are slim and lightweight, yet very, very warm. You will forget you are wearing it - they are light as air! Perfect for fitting under a jacket which zips up high, and perfect for activities such as cycling or skiing where you need everything to be tucked in neatly.

Alpaca is four times warmer than lambswool and it doesn't pill (bobble), so you will find this snood looks good for ages.  Choose from 8 colours, all ready to dispatch immediately. The pink snood and the blue snood are knitted in a stripe effect of 3 colours (pink, grey and white for the pink snood - and blue, beige and white for the blue snood). The other snoods are all knitted in one plain colour.

You won't need to wash it often as the properties of the natural fibre repel dirt.  When you do wash it, hand wash in warmish (about 30 degrees) water with delicate detergent or shampoo and it will wash brilliantly and stay like new. Do not tumble dry, just lie flat to dry.

This will quickly become your favourite snood to pull on when it's chilly outside!  Treat yourself to some luxury for the cold winter months.

Our snoods are all washed and pressed so they will reach you in perfect condition.

Alpaca is one of the finest and most luxurious fibres in the world.  It is known for its softness, superior warmth, lightweightedness and durability. It won't pill and will last much longer than synthetic fibres. Cruelty free, the alpacas are shorn once a year for their valuable fleece, and baby alpaca is extremely soft and itch free.
