Anna's Hood Scarf - The Nordic Essentials
Always In · Level: Beginner
Part of Always In – my collection of timeless basics. Anna's Hood Scarf is a multi-purpose hood scarf that combines a hood, a headscarf and a neck warmer in one design, knitted in alpaca and mohair from Sandnes Garn and House of Yarn. Wear it as a hood, buttoned under the chin, loose around the shoulders or as a snug neck warmer.
Elegant. Versatile. Timeless.
As seen on TV. Anna's Beanie Scarf can be seen in «Den italienske husdrømmen» on HBO — there in a brown version that is now sold out, but knitted from the same basic pattern.
Styling
Wear Anna's Hood Scarf under a wool coat, over a knitted sweater or with a down jacket on cold winter days. It works just as well pushing the pram as walking in the woods or around town, and is easy to vary with the weather and your style.

The story behind the design
Anna's Hood Scarf is inspired by vintage headscarves and classic Nordic winter wear. The aim was to make a modern accessory that combines function, comfort and femininity – a design that keeps out wind and cold without compromising on how it looks.
The result is a piece that suits the city just as well as the cabin, and that is easy to style for the weather and the occasion.
