Even though we’re a couple of days into Spring, for so many of us in Northern climates, it still feels like the dead of Winter. It’s not too late to keep yourself toasty with one of these warm and wooly Space Invaders scarves.

Handcrafted by Edinburgh textile artist Catriona McLaughlin (aka Wildcat Designs), this new Space Invaders scarf (version 2.0) improves upon her original design with bigger, bolder invaders which can be seen from much further away.

No actual Space Invaders were harmed in the making of these scarves, instead each one is made from soft and fuzzy 100% Merino lambswool from Scotland. Measuring about 70-inches long, the 2.0 version is also about 10 inches longer than the original, keeping your neck just that much warmer.

You can grab this one from Wildcat’s shop over on DaWanda for €35 (appx. $54 USD) or for those of us in the States, you also might need to check out her Etsy shop.
