madder red rayon challis scarf

madder red rayon challis scarf

$185.00

A rich warm shade of red that goes with everything! This silky, luxurious, rayon challis scarf is dyed by hand with madder root.

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 red 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.

fabric: rayon challis (Crafted specifically with sustainability in mind, 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).

care: hand wash with mild shampoo, air dry and steam press on silk setting

size: 10.5" x 72"
