The Rose Scarves are exceptionally feminine and functional scarves that will turn heads when you wear them! They can be worn completely up, as pictured, to create the layers of soft petals that give the scarf its name, or can be worn more casually, in a cascade of spiraling ruffles. They can be worn with many outfits, from jeans to evening wear. These scrves also make wonderful gifts for loved ones. Each one is as unique as the person who wears it!

I hand-make all of my scarves using a technique called "nuno" wet-felting, which uses both wool and silk chiffon, binding them together by the use of heat and agitation. Felting is a traditional process of making fabric from loose wool fibers that predates weaving in ancient society. The introduction of silk materials is a recent technique, which allows for a greater range of effects, including more draping and movement of the felted garment.

The wool is a blend of merino, the softest wool in the world, and tussah silk fibers, which give the scarf a gossamer sheen. I hand-dye the silk chiffon with french dyes and the colors of these scarves are truly rich and vivid.

The Hibiscus Rose has a yellow silk chiffon center and an ecru petal with coral edging.
