Inspired by lots of excellent coffee and delightful design market outings, the Melbourne Snood is the stylish way of keeping the cold winds at bay in this creative city.

The Melbourne Snood came to life when I was looking for something to keep the cold Melbourne wind off my neck, even in Summer.

It’s light and not bulky and perfect for those in-between days when the southerly wind is blowing. Mine hangs in the hallway all year round, and it’s a Melbourne must have – there can be 4 seasons in one day after all!
