The stacked, pierced arches of a stone grill seen in the auditorium of an old theater sparked the inspiration for this scarf full of undulating cables. The repeating pattern is mirrored, dancing down the length of this wonderfully wide scarf, which is high enough to protect the back of your neck from a frosty wind.
