Both elegant and incredibly adorable, the Les Garçons Scarf is sure to become a statement piece in your outerwear wardrobe. Its stranded colourwork in-the-round construction and length guarantee warmth whether you’re out on a brisk spring or autumn evening, or braving the dead of winter. The scarf features Max and Vincent’s alter egos, respectively the fox and the bear, and gorgeous tassels for a unique and elevated look. Please note that some rounds involve working with three colours at a time.
