Alpaca Wool Knitted Neck Gaiter from Germany

A seamless tube-style gaiter knitted from alpaca wool, multifunctional as neck warmer, face mask, or headband. Falls under HTS 6117.80.95.20 for other wool accessories, as it's not a ski-suit component or garment part per chapter notes. Lack of pockets or zippers keeps it as a simple accessory.
