My mom bought this scarf, and it's really beautiful. I borrowed it yesterday, and I love the fact that the pattern is blocked. I wore it wrapped tightly around my neck under a hoodie to go to the library, and then later in the evening, I draped it loosely around my neck over a loose open back tshirt dress and it looked gorgeous! The scarf isn't as long as I would like, but my mom is perfectly satisfied with the length. I managed to get my watch caught in it and there is a small pull in the knit, but that's expected with any knit item. My mom has a lot of Missoni scarves, and you just have to take very good care of them.
