Handmade Dragon Tears Red and Teal Cashmere Cowl/Neckwarmer

Dragon Tears Red and Teal Cashmere Cowl/NeckwarmerPart of Tamara Embrey's Red and Aqua/Teal "Dragon" series: a cowl/neckwarmer to fancy-up your wardrobe. Gorgeous soft teal cable cashmere meets red cashmere. This design features her original asymmetric loop design with seven sewn "waves" moving across the red, and seven on the teal (for interest and texture). Seven hand-cut "dragon tears" spill across the red surrounded by bright teal "spiralgraphic" stitching. Exposed teal serging all around.

Wear it: as a neck piece, a cowl, a head piece, around head and neck, or even around your shoulders. Keeps you warm when it's cold outside, or when it's chilly, instead of a coat.

As with all of her designs, this one-of-a-kind piece, hand made by me from 99% recycled materials. Amazingly soft and warm. You'll want to wear it every day.
