This hand dyed silk wool scarf was made by first dyeing the fabric with a mixture of logwood and cochineal plant dyes. I folded the fabric accordion style and clamped the center area with metal square objects. The metal acts as a resist to the dye, creating patterns. The method is called “Itajime.” The scarf was dipped in the indigo vat twice, creating the lavender squares in the center.
I washed the wrap three times and ironed it. It is very soft and can be worn as a wrap or scarf.
Care: Wash it in a gentle cycle or hand wash in cool water. Hang to dry. If you want to iron it for a smoother look, use a silk setting.
