After all of our cold weather and trying different scarves with my coat. I have decided I don't have the perfect cold weather scarf. I am talking zero and below cold. My scarves work well for warmer temperatures. Here is what I think I need.
- wider than 8 inches so it goes from the coat to over the ears
- thick as in worsted weight so it resists wind going through it
- need to be able to pull up over nose
- can't block my view
- It would be nice if it could go over the edge of my hat
- Needs to retain heat
I believe I am looking for a mobius, a cowl, or a wimple of some sort. All of mine are too narrow, a bit lacy, or let the wind through to much. To keep them over my nose, I have to hold them. It would be nice to be able to jam the glove clad hands into pockets while walking.
Any suggestions on patterns or yarns?
The final test will be 20 mph wind gust when the temperature is below zero. Hopefully, the test conditions won't show up for awhile.
