“Buy less. Choose well. And make it last,” once said the grand dame of fashion, Vivienne Westwood. And though the pull of wool may tempt you to run and buy armfuls of high-street knitwear this winter, what you really need is one beautifully crafted item to see you through the cold snap and beyond.
Case in point: this handcrafted Everywhere Scarf from The Endery, a Fairtrade company making playful, attitude-laden knitwear from leftover ends of yarn in Peru. This long, ribbed colour-block scarf is handmade by artisans on a manual loom using 100% alpaca wool, and is colourful enough to brighten up pretty much any outfit. Grey skies begone. £120, Gather&See
