How big are Biquette Scarves?
Our kids' knit scarves are 6 by 50 inches, perfectly sized for young ones without extra length to trip over while our adults' knit scarves are 10 by 80 inches, so they're long enough to stylishly wrap.
Why choose cotton?
Cotton is a good choice when you want a fabric that's breathable, soft against the skin, and comfortable throughout the year. We take that a step further by only using premium cotton fibers like Egyptian cotton for a smoother finish and subtle sheen or organic cotton for a softer, more matte feel.
What's the difference between Egyptian cotton and organic cotton?
Egyptian cotton refers to cotton grown in Egypt. We intentionally use long-staple Giza 86 Egyptian cotton which makes a smoother yarn with fine stitch definition. Organic cotton describes how the fiber is grown rather than the origin, and these usually leave softer, matte finishes.
Choosing between the two doesn't necessarily mean a trade-off in quality, especially as we also use organic cotton and Egyptian cotton blends for the best of both worlds.
We go through each of the fiber differences (cotton vs. wool vs. synthetics), how Biquette uses these premium fibers, and what that means for you in both luxurious knit blankets and scarves: https://biquette.com/blogs/journal/best-fibers-for-knit-blankets
What's the difference between cotton and merino wool scarves?
Cotton has a smoother, more substantial drape and tends to feel cooler against the skin. On the other hand, extra-fine Merino wool is a more insulating yet lightweight alternative. Cotton works well for everyday layering, while merino is particularly suited to colder weather without feeling too heavy.
Who designs the patterns?
Our knit designs are intentionally curated and created in collaboration with independent artists, so each piece is an original work you won't find anywhere else.
