Varusteleka Traditional Neckwarmer, Merino Wool

This comes in exactly one size, and it’s the right one. The fit is fairly snug but very stretchy – just like certain other nice things in life. The snugness means this works even for pencil-necks.

If you’re built like a bull, you might see stars for a moment, but keep wearing it and the knit will loosen to a comfortable tightness – or your vision will simply go black. Either way, problem solved.

Jokes aside, this new model will fit your neck just fine.

The neck warmer is made from two different rib knits. The body is smooth, while the neck opening is a stronger, highly elastic 2×2 rib. The average fabric weight of the knits is about 380 g/m².

Material: 100% mulesing-free merino wool, 19.5 µm. The yarn has a first-stage shrink-resistance treatment (Basolan).

Made in Finland by Agtuvi Oy.

Care

Wool wash at 40 °C / 104 °F. Don’t leave it in a wet heap after washing – shape it while damp. And do not put this in a tumble dryer, unless you truly want this to be the last neck warmer you ever wear. Thanks to wool’s natural antibacterial properties, you won’t need to wash this very often – if ever.
