loop-de-loop

Remember the days when hipsters were wearing keffiyeh scarves, probably having no idea they were aligning themselves with militant extremists for the sake of trendiness? Let’s hope that all those cheap Urban Outfitter rags are tattered and tossed and everyone goes back to a good old-fashioned scarf that actually provides some level of warmth!

Well… not “good old-fashioned” scarves. I want a drapey continuous scarf! (I’ve typed the word “scarf” so many times now… what a silly word! scarf scarf scarf!) Seriously though, these look so cozy and squishy and sincerely snug and they’re such a nice departure from long tails catching in car doors, getting sat on and nearly choking yourself, and getting wet in public sinks. These are pretty much a no-brainer with a few different styling and warmth options.

The green one is from etsy shop I’ll be Yarned and the second is from Tortillagirl. Etsy has so many color options available but you’re paying for the handmade aspect. Knitting is no joke. (I much rather prefer a dark grey. These make me want to get my knitting needles out again. You can try your hand at a diy project- just knit your normal scarf and stitch the ends together!)

These multi-loop handmade cotton scarves from Necklush (also on etsy) have been all over the interwebs. I am in love with this concept and their richness. Here is a sweet diy tutorial to make your own out of old t-shirts.

This knit scarf from Assembly New York can also be worn as a snuggly hood but it’s tattered and worn, which gives it a lot of character. At over $100 I would rather do my own damage over time… just let my cats have a field day. This looks like it could be replicated with a old huge thrifted sweater, cut and stretched to hell.
