Golden Hour – Handwoven Merino & Alpaca Cowl
Infused with the warm hues of a late afternoon sun, Golden Hour wraps you in earthy rust, ochre, soft amber and dappled lavender. This beautifully balanced cowl evokes the colours of Australian bushland at sunset. Each strand of fibre has been hand-dyed using plants gathered from nature, before being woven into a soft, breathable blend of alpaca and merino wool.
Renowned for their warmth, merino and alpaca fibres provide natural insulation without heaviness, keeping you cosy whether you’re out exploring or curled up indoors. Comfortable, durable, and full of personality, this cowl is a timeless, slow-made treasure—ideal for nature lovers, textile collectors, and those who appreciate functional art.
Care Instructions for Handwoven Merino & Alpaca Cowls
Your Ashculme Textiles cowl is a lovingly handwoven piece made from soft merino wool and fleece from the artist’s own alpacas. Naturally dyed using foraged plants, each cowl is unique, delicate, and made to be treasured.
To help preserve its beauty and softness, follow these simple care steps:
Washing:
Gently hand wash in cool water using a mild wool-safe detergent.
Avoid soaking for long periods.
Do not wring, rub, or twist the fabric—simply press gently to release water.
Drying:
Roll in a clean towel to absorb excess moisture, then reshape while damp.
Lay flat to dry on a towel away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
Storing:
Store flat or loosely folded in a cool, dry place.
Avoid hanging for long periods, which may distort the shape.
To keep moths away, store with natural repellents like lavender or cedar.
Please avoid:
Machine washing or tumble drying.
Bleach or harsh stain removers.
Ironing directly (a light steam from a distance is fine, if needed).
With gentle care, your cowl will stay soft, beautiful, and wearable for many seasons to come—an heirloom piece woven in the colours of nature.
