The Soopa Scarf by Yooka Will Engulf Your Entire Head
Meghan Young — November 11, 2010 — Fashion
Just when I thought scarves couldn't get bigger, Etsy seller Yooko hits us over the head with this doozy: the Soopa Scarf. Of course, this soft, knitted creation wouldn't hurt so much--but it does look like it could eat you alive or, at the very least, suffocate you.
Made by hand, the Soopa Scarf is sold for $150 each. An even larger version is available--at 11 feet long and 8 inches wide--for $220. You probably could forgo wearing a winter jacket if you purchase one of these gargantuan scarves.
