Becksöndergaard Salsa Red Opany Triangle Scarf

The Opany is technically a scarf, but that feels like only half the story. A long triangle of beautifully light, fluffy mohair, it’s knitted with a delicate pointelle pattern and finished all the way around with a tiny scalloped edge. There’s something almost vintage about the knit, particularly in this brilliant bright red, but the shape makes it feel completely current.

Wear it tied closely around the neck with the point falling at the front, drape it over your shoulders, or take Becksöndergaard’s lead and wear it around the waist over trousers or a skirt.

That’s what makes this one so good – it’s as much an extra layer of texture and colour as it is something to keep you warm.

The 46 x 135cm triangular shape gives you enough length to actually play around with how you wear it, while the 67% mohair and 33% nylon blend keeps it soft, airy and beautifully fuzzy rather than heavy. And this red is excellent. The sort of colour that does all the work for you.
