Madder Red Scarf
Madder Red Scarf
Elegance in.
fabric: rayon challis (this lightweight soft fabric has a fluid drape and is made with ECOVERO, a sustainable viscose, which boasts the lowest environmental impact by using strictly sustainable sources).
size: 14" x 62"
care: hand wash with mild shampoo, air dry and steam press on rayon setting
To create this scarf I began with washing, mordanting and dying the fabric a base color. Next, for the first layer of pattern, I dyed the rayon first with oak galls and then with madder root, incorporating a clamp-resist (shibori) technique. Then I used hand block printing to add another layer of surface design and, after drying for three or four days, I set, machine hemmed and pressed to finish.
Each scarf is one of a kind. If not currently available in our showroom, this design can be made to order. Ship times will vary based on availability. There are a variety of colors to choose from. For more color options contact me.
