The Mizen Scarf is a comfort cable and textured knit in rustically soft Irish yarn.

Named for the most southerly point of mainland Ireland, Mizen is the spot where you can look out to sea, across the Atlantic to the Fastnet Lighthouse. Often misty, windy and rainy all at once, it’s also completely magic.
