Black Lily

Black Lily is another lovely Danish company to add to the list. They have an online shop where you can buy things like this perfect little blue suede bag and this embroidered scarf.

Me & Em

These polka-dot, very-fine cashmere scarves from Me & Em are lovely. Pictures: Me & Em.

Anna

A really beautiful, and unusual, ink-tipped linen scarf from Anna. Just £25, and perfect for hols.

Tamasyn Gambell

Tamasyn Gambell's silk and wool scarves are incredibly beautiful. I love her vintage-scarf-covered notebooks, too.

Klaus Haapaniemi

These exquisite, earthy-hued Scandinavian throws, with designs featuring rabbits, blueberries and acorns, are by Finnish designer Klaus Haapaniemi and Swedish artist Mia Walleniusto. I love them.

The Linen Press

Spots and stripes I'm keen on from The Linen Press (who also sell the best sheets money can buy).

Erfurt scarves

Such a sucker am I for all things Scandinavian, the fact that Erfurt scarves come from Denmark instantly makes me like them more that I would if they were from, say, Australia. I'm very impressionable like that. These chevron-weave, merino wool ones are £89 each, from the brilliant Anna Lizzio in Tetbury.

Somerville Scarves

Sally's silk Somerville Scarves are about a millions times more lovely in the flesh than they look here. Really show-stoppingly nice. I have my eye on one of these spotty ones.

Becksöndergaard

Lovely floral cotton scarves by Danish accessories label Becksondergaard. I particularly like the one on the left. Stocked at The Dressing Room, Yellow Bee, and Hub.

The drawer under my bed that stores my scarves is fit to burst. Nestled amongst the moth balls there are thin cotton neckerchiefs in prints and polkadots to wear with jumpers or tied in a turban on my head on holiday, gauzy scarves with Indian embroidery that are too cosy to consider taking off on arrival at the office, enveloping shawls for telly watching, tartan cashmere for Wiltshire walks... This one would be a dream purchase - from NY label Matta, available at The Cross http://www.thecrossshop.co.uk/. Pricey but lovely. http://www.mattany.com/
