Description

Welcome to Bear & Boar snoods, and my range of hand crafted Hedgerow snoods. My Blackthorn Hedgerow Snood is made from a beautiful Iceland Lopi Alafosslopi wool; incredibly warm, yet lightweight and hard wearing. My own snood is a Blackthorn and is one I recommend to most people who want a true cold weather snood. Each snood is made using the ancient craft of nalebinding (older than both knitting and crochet), where loops are worked and joined by hand using a single needle. The result is a dense, durable fabric that holds its shape, keeps the heat in, and stands up to years of wear. Each snood is hand made to order so please allow a maximum of 4 weeks for the item to be made and dispatched, although I will do my best to get the item out much sooner. Each snood is sent out in a recycled box and packaged in fully recycled materials - Icelandic Lopi yarn - Handcrafted using traditional nalebinding - Warm, lightweight and naturally breathable - Three sizes available - Each piece slightly unique due to the handmade process Built the old way, for everyday use. Sizing Guide: - Small: 55 cm diameter - Medium: 60 cm diameter - Large: 65 cm diameter Please note: While the snood sits comfortably around the neck, it must pass over the head. When measuring, ensure there is sufficient room for a comfortable fit over the head as well as around the neck.

This snood is handmade from natural wool using traditional nalebinding techniques. Wool may cause irritation for those with sensitive skin or allergies. Not suitable for young children without supervision, as the snood may pose a risk if pulled tightly around the neck. Keep away from open flames, as wool is a natural fibre and may scorch or burn. Handmade items may vary slightly in size and finish
