Olive-green knit scarf with snowflake pin
Description
I lost my olive-green knit scarf yesterday around 3pm in Lithia Park, near the fountain by the plaza off Main Street in Ashland. It's a soft ribbed scarf about 60 inches long, with a small silver snowflake pin attached near the fringe at one end. There’s a faint coffee stain near the other end from Monday morning coffee runs—very minor. It’s my go-to cozy wrap and it was a sentimental gift from my mom, so it means a lot to me. Please if you found it, I’d be forever grateful to have it back; I’ve been worried since yesterday and really need it back to stay warm on chilly medford mornings.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
