Scarves

Bashlyk is a part of the Adyghe (Circassian) warrior’s ammunition.  
 
A hood with long blades made out of double-folded piece of cloth. The blades are wound around the neck, like a scarf. They can also cover the face from bad weather, or if you wish to remain unrecognized. 
 
When riding horseback, bashlyk’s blades are wrapped around the neck with the ends dangling back. In good weather, bashlyk hangs on the shoulders, fastened with a cord, with its hood and blades lowered back.

The long end of the hood is edged with durable protective tape.
 
The Bashlyk hood has not lost its relevance in the modern urban environment being a fashionable removable hood, and as an indispensable article of a traveler’s, hunter’s or fisherman’s garment. It protects from rain, cold and sun.

A thick crocheted muffler of warm semi-woolen yarn, for informal clothes.

A twofold tube-shaped scarf with the fringe on the ends.

Length – 58 inch (1470 mm), width – 6 ½ inch (165 mm).

The scarf is decorated with a stylized image of the Soviet State Flag, covered with the Soviet symbols and slogans.
