Handwoven recycled silk yarn with gold kettle dyed wool yarn from Uruguay. Himalaya recycled silk yarn is made of mill end sari silk fabric. The colors are random with no pattern. A lot of greens and blues show up in this scarf. The sari silk, by being randomly spun together, creates a silk yarn with a ragged or distressed look.
I have woven wool lavender stripes across the scarf. Totally unique.
By purchasing this product, you are supporting women's development groups in Nepal who are producing this recycled silk. They spin it into usable yarn in their own homes. You are also supporting Uruguayan village women who dye and spin the wool yarn in this scarf.
Each scarf comes with a free lavender sachet. Lavender helps to keep moths, bugs, etc. away from wool and silk.
Scarf measures 80" (2m) long and 4" (10cm) wide with 2" (6cm) fringe on each end.
Hand wash, lay flat to dry.
