Charcoal and soft brown run together through this marled cashmere scarf, bringing a cocoa warmth to its clean, rhythmic ribbing. Its shaded brown palette adds depth to a plain coat, while the narrow ribbed shape keeps the drape close and comfortable. Knitted in Nepal from 100% Himalayan cashmere, this 69 × 10 inch unisex scarf offers length for a loose drape or a comfortable neck loop. Dry clean, or hand wash cold and lay flat to dry, to care for the soft cashmere. The Pokhara artisan network linked to this cocoa knit is supported by a nonprofit that combines livelihood assistance with care for the wider disability community. Make it the piece you reach for when a simple outfit needs a personal touch.

Artisan Profile
Nepalese and Tibetan Himalayan cashmere is renowned for its exceptional softness, warmth, and lightweight feel. Cashmere comes from the incredibly fine undercoat of goats, making it naturally insulating without feeling heavy. In fact, it can take the wool from an average of three goats to produce a single scarf.
Our cashmere scarves and beanies are handmade in Pokhara, Nepal, by blind, deaf, and disabled artisans. We partner with a local nonprofit organization that provides training, tools, and ongoing support to help create meaningful employment and greater independence through the art of weaving.
For many people with disabilities in Nepal, access to stable work can be extremely limited. Weaving provides an opportunity to earn an income, build confidence, develop valuable skills, and create a greater sense of independence within their families and communities. The organization also supports the wider disabled and underserved community by providing white canes, hearing aids, wheelchairs, food, medicine, and essential supplies to care homes, as well as distributing aid to communities affected by earthquakes and landslides.
Beautifully handmade and connected to a cause we deeply value, these cashmere pieces are some of our absolute favorites.
