sumptuous silk

A new twist on an old favourite

Close up of the sumptuous blue silk I have been playing with recently.

The Pieced Fabric Scarf is one of my favourite designs. Judging from some of your comments on this post, it's a winner with you too.

And while I love making them with my vast stash of suiting fabrics, I have recently started playing with silk. (If you are a regular reader you'll know how much I like silk!)

While I have been staying true to the original design, one main front piece with multiple strips of fabric at the ends, I've been rethinking the accent. The silk is so rich and luxurious that I don't think it needs it.

I've made one in various blue silks. (I'm keeping this one for myself!)

And another in various shades of browns and beiges.

They are lighter and dressier than the original scarves – perfect for warmer weather and dressing up an outfit.

What do you think? Will they walk out the door?

I like the brown one. A grey one would be nice too.

Those scarves are made for walking!
