Jane Porter uses plant dyes that she mixes to create unique colors. Each scarf is handwoven by fair trade artisans. Jane specifies the weave structure and natural fiber yarns. When the un-dyed scarves arrive, the magic of color making begins. Working with plant extracts, Jane mixes different dyes together. After the first dye bath is finished, she adds different colors so that no two scarves are alike. Because she uses colors from nature, the hues compliment skin tones. Each scarf is soft, washable, comfortable, and can be styled in different ways to expand your wardrobe.
