The warp of this scarf is dyed with cochineal producing two shades, one of purple and one of pink. The weft is a commercial 100 percent wool yarn, which has a thick, lofty and traditional wool feel. The length is 96 inches (including the hand twisted fringe) and an 8 inch width. The scarf is woven with 100 percent wool yarns. The loftiness of the weft yarn creates a pixelated visual with the warp yarn. The length of the scarf makes it appropriate for wearing twisted around the neck (as pictured) or wearing at it's full length outside other garments. Although it is made of wool the twill weave structure makes for a lighter wear and this scarf can be worn in most seasons as well as tied tightly for warmth in the winter.
Care instructions will be included in each purchase but generally these will be handwash only in cold water with a fiber specific cleanser. All sales are final (no returns or exchanges). If you have questions or concerns please contact me through e-mail. If you are in the Portland, OR metro area I am happy to meet up in person to let you examine several pieces.
