SNOOD

A snood is an infinity scarf sewn into a solid closed loop (or a very wide scarf whose ends are joined), simply pulled over the head, wrapping the neck in one or several loops. Unlike an ordinary scarf, a snood needs no tying and does not come undone, so it is comfortable and warms reliably. A voluminous knitted snood adds cosiness and softness to a look, and its large loops can be thrown over the head as a hood too. Snoods are knitted of wool, cashmere or acrylic, often in a large textured knit. It is a popular, practical winter accessory. A snood is an infinity scarf in the form of a closed loop, in which convenience (no need to tie) and reliable warmth combine with a voluminous, cosy character that made it a popular and practical winter accessory of a soft, enveloping style.
