Need your help!
 
I �m a Spanish teacher , and I �m teaching about clothes  in the 3th grade, I have a question:
 
How do you say in English,  a sort of round scarf specially worn by young people? Here in Spain we call it "braga" ( in singular, nothing to do with the underwear).
 
Thanks in advance.

Snood is used for a bufanda style braga, maybe balaclava is also similar, although it is not.the same thing...

Why not call it Wollen round scarf or crochet round scarf, depending on the material it is made of.  I guess you can also call it a Circle scarf ans maryse peyé as pointed out.

Hi, mluisara. Probably you are referring to a neck warmer, a very trendy accessory nowadays.

I think it´s called "infinity scraf." I  made one a few weeks ago and the pattern was for an infinity scraf.

I �ve seen "infinity scarf" a lot recently. A "buff" is more like a neckerchief (shorter than an infinity scarf).
The best thing is to search on google images and see which picture best corresponds to your "braga".
 
Or go to mango.es or zara.es and find the product you like, then look for the equivalent on the English website!
