Description

This scarf is made out of a 100% Australian Fine Merino Wool.

All of my scarfs are naturally dyed in my home studio using various different leaves such as: eucalyptus, fern, maple, birch,  oak, seaweeds and many others, foraged locally from the Tasmanian bush and my garden.  The fresh leaves are contact printed onto the scarf with a gentle steaming process for several hours. Once the leaves are used I can’t use them again, and the leaves go back to earth in my compost. That’s why all of the scarves are one of a kind. No nasty chemicals, just the power and hidden beauty of the leaves.

 

Dimensions:

About 65cm by 200cm

 

How do you care for it?

I recommend hand washing only, using a mild (preferably eco-friendly) detergent in cold water. Please do not rub vigorously, because you risk felting it, which will cause shrinking. Do not tumble dry. Rinse out the detergent until the water runs clear. Gently remove excess water, and lay your scarf flat on a dry absorbent towel. Roll up the scarf in the towel, pressing firmly as you roll. Don’t wring the towel. Place the scarf on a dry towel until fully dry. The first few washes the scarf may release little dye. This is normal and won’t affect the look of your scarf.
