Midnight Tangle transitions greens that go through a deep green with warm undertones to dark olive, fern green, sage and a warm avocado as a subtle highlight color. And a celebration of a dream with deep marine blues and purples.
Each scarf is handwoven with care, in my Southern California Studio, from beautiful hand dyed yarns I have purchased. I take great delight and deliberation in the planning of the finished color interactions as well as the final texture and drape of the scarves. I like to create my scarves with a comfortable width and generous length while offering a variety of stylish options to accessorize any outfit and still provide significant warmth from cool breezes and frigid climes.
This scarf is woven with a light weight yarn for the warp (the fibers running the length of the scarf) and the weft ( the fibers filing in side to side) of merino wool with a touch of nylon, for added strength *. The spacing of the warp and the softly beaten weft combine to create a soft, very pliable scarf with wonderful drape. The warp threads have been hand dyed with 7 shades of one color family resulting in subtle to strong color variations bringing wonderful depth and life to the scarf. The weft threads have been dyed in a gradation slowly blending from one color to the next through 7 different colors. Each scarf has a hand manipulated accent at either end to add an interesting and unique detail.
*Merino Wool comes from Merino sheep, a special breed. It is known for being the softest of any sheep's wool. Its insulating properties help regulate body temperatures, providing warmth without overheating the wearer, especially when worn against the deals skin. It also displays a great luster, and draws moisture away from the skin, a phenomenon known as wicking.
