This is a nursing scarf. It can be used for nursing by wearing it over your head. It can also be used as a scarf, so you can wear it without feeling out of place. I wore it about 3 times and then quickly stopped needing it, so I'm selling it. There are no noticeable stains, but please understand that it has been stored by a private individual.
