The scarf is beautiful and has just the right colors for me.  It is light and wears well around my neck and to keep my high coat collar from chaffing my neck.  I believe I can also wear it as an accessory with a sweater, etc. The only thing I did notice is that it seems to leave ravelings on my navy blue coat. Perhaps it will not continue to do that after I wash it.  Still, I like it very much.
