Description: Multi-color Black, Gray, and Raspberry Pink NECK WARMER SCARF | Striped BUTTONED COWL Women's extra soft acrylic neck warmer with large black buttons. The color in the photos is called Black Raspberry and includes black, light gray, dark gray, and raspberry pink. Each neck warmer I make with this type of self-striping yarn will look different from the others I've made, since it's hard to predict where the colors will show up in the warmer. The striping of the warmer you receive may not match up exactly to the pictures. The Charisma brand of yarn is perfect for winter: it's considered a bulky yarn (thicker than normal strand) but is still very airy and lightweight, providing warmth without heaviness. It's 100% acrylic, extremely soft and cushion-y, so no concern about itchiness whatsoever! (: Compared to my other Charisma neck warmers, this one is a bit narrower and also a little longer. I (Michele) design and hand-crochet all of my scarves. My pricing is based on yarn costs, crocheting time, and Ebay & Paypal seller fees. After a busy year, I'm making most scarves to order (which means I make the scarves after they are purchased). The handling time in each listing will be an indication of the time it takes me to make the scarf. The handling time for this neck warmer is currently three business days, but if sales are slow I may ship sooner. (: --Yarn Content: 100% Acrylic --Yarn Brand: Charisma --Yarn Label Color: Black Raspberry --Approximate Length (includes overlap): 27 inches/68.5 cm --Approximate Width: 5.5 inches/14 cm --Thickness: 3/8 inch/.8 cm This yarn contains NO wool, so no itchiness. Neck warmers are the perfect alternative to scarves when you need to keep your neck warm but don't want all the extra length that a traditional scarf offers. Neck warmers fit really well underneath coats and jackets, and add a little extra color and interest to a winter outfit. They can easily be put on and taken off without messing up hair or make-up. You can wear one with a solid-colored crew-neck or v-neck sweater for extra warmth or to create a turtleneck look without the actual turtleneck. They are great for skiing, hiking, walking, or any outdoor winter activity since they can't possibly get in your way like a traditional scarf might. This warmer will fit best on those with a neck size between 12 and 14 inches/30 and 35 cm. I can always make them in different sizes, if needed. The warmer is fastened in front with two large black plastic buttons. The spaces between crochet stitches are the “built-in” buttonholes. The pictures show just a few ways the warmer can be fastened: the buttons can be placed in different areas, offering a little creativity with the way you’d like to wear this short scarf. CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Can be washed in cool on a delicate cycle and dried in dryer on low setting. However, I recommend either hand-washing in cold water and laying flat to dry, or washing on a gentle cycle in a lingerie bag and drying only a few minutes in the dryer. The gentler washing & drying prevents the yarn from frizzing over time. Avoid washing with heavier garments that cause friction. If using washing machine, avoid washing with items that have zippers, buttons, etc that may snag the yarn loops and pull on them or make the yarn fray. Note: All yarns come with some degree of "factory residue" that makes the yarn feel a little stiff. This will disappear with normal handling and/or the first wash, bringing out the true softness of the yarn. U.S. SHIPPING: I keep shipping to a minimum and offer USPS First Class Package as the best value for price & speed. For multiple orders, I often use Priority Mail. I use the Paypal USPS integrated shipping system whenever possible, so you will be provided with a delivery confirmation number by email. I do combine shipping and already have discounts set up through Ebay, but may be able to reduce shipping costs even more if you'd like to request a total after purchasing multiple items but before paying for them. Once shipped, almost all of my shipments within the U.S. arrive in two to five mailing days. INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING: I always combine shipping for multiple orders and already have discounts set up through Ebay. I will always refund any significant over-payment of postage costs. I most commonly use USPS First Class International for shipping outside of the US. First Class International may take a longer time to arrive than other services, but it's much more affordable than Priority International (which usually runs $25 or more for a few ounces). Delivery time for international packages is usually 5 to 15 business days. Customs, bad weather, or national holidays can sometimes slow down a package with the occasional shipment taking around 30 days to arrive. This only happens to about 5% of my international shipments. (: As of January 27th, 2013, USPS has raised prices for First Class International, in some cases almost doubling the amount they used to charge. On a positive note, they are starting to include tracking and delivery confirmation as part of the First Class service. They are beginning with Canada and will be adding other countries in the future. International Buyers Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying. PAYMENTS: I only accept PayPal. If you don't have a PayPal account, you will still be able to pay with a credit or debit card through PayPal. You can also pay from your bank account using an E-check (also through the PayPal system), but I won't be able to ship until the check has cleared, PayPal says it's okay to ship and allows me to print out a label. RETURNS: For now, I am not accepting returns, but am completely open to resolving any problems that may occur. I feel the best strategy is to head off any problems before they even happen. If you have any questions whatsoever about any items I am selling, please ask. Thanks for looking! (:
