What happens when you combine soft and softer in one delicious loop? These two yarns, the stars of our Breton Cowl, come together in a sleek mix of merino, cashmere, mohair, and silk. Drift has a gentle weight to it that gives this cowl a sublime drape, a matte backdrop that allows the Silk Cloud to stripe with a subtle sheen. 85% extrafine merino/15% cashmere; 60% kid mohair/40% silk
