Handwoven Wool Cotton Long Scarf - Starry Night

Stars spread out across the clear night sky, sparkling with brilliance. I have woven the twinkle of the stars and the warmth of the earth into this piece. The warp is cotton, but since the weft is merino wool, both the front and back surfaces that touch your skin are soft merino wool. I have combined thick and thin wool, mohair, and decorative accent yarns to create a unique texture. Size (Width x Length): Approx. 37cm x 200cm (including 5cm fringe and 2cm side fringe). Weight: 198g. Despite its long size, it has a wonderfully airy and light finish. This scarf is both elegant and calm, capturing the stillness of the night. It shows many different expressions depending on how you wrap it. We hope you enjoy finding your favorite way to wear it. I blend numerous yarns to create the colors, and every piece undergoes "fulling" (thorough washing to remove impurities and enhance texture) after completion. Please understand that slight variations in shrinkage are a natural characteristic of handwoven art. "Saori Weaving" was established by Misao Jo as a way of "weaving from the heart, shaping your feelings in the moment." I share the production process and new work announcements on instagram. ◇ At atk, we provide wrapping even for "standard shipping." ◇ Gift wrapping is available free of charge.
