Guaranteed a one of a kind piece - i couldn't recreate it if i tried :)
Naturally dyeing silk with plant matter requires more time and patience than using synthetic silk dye. It takes 12 hours just to clean & prep the silk to take natural dye, Then at least 2 hours in a dye vat per colour while playing around with resist binding in between colours. It's always worth the time when experiencing the thrill of unveiling the final result!
A silk scarf is perfect to wear any time during the year. As a natural fibers, both silk & wool keep you cool in the summer and warm in the cooler months. A silk scarf makes a luxurious gift for someone you love or a much-deserved treat for yourself!
