One of my bug bears is watching the girls run in to school wearing a lovely (often new) warm scarf, only to see them run out hours later, not only without the scarf, but with no idea where it is, because at some point during the day it's dropped off and they have no idea where or when.
And one of Bella's bug bears, is having something wrapped too tightly around her neck, so that it won't drop off while she's running around.
So, the very obvious solution (after making grown up snoods for the last few years), was to make snoods for children.
The main problem with wool snoods for children is the itchiness, so to combat that, as well as making the snood even warmer, I've lined them with cotton jersey.
The lining also makes the snoods look a bit more fun, and if they really wanted to, they can be reversed.
Both Lily and Bella (who snarfed the first few that I made), have worn them constantly. They both agree that they don't itch, (unlike Bella's new expensive scarf that I bought her just before making the snoods!) and most importantly, they don't fall off!
