Spring Block Printed Scarf
Spring Block Printed Scarf
This is the second one-of-a-kind scarf for the 2022 Scarf Club! It explores natural dyes and print making with mordant paste.
Throughout Maggie’s travels in India back is 2006-2007, she collected antique wood carved blocks for block printing. Now they are being honored & utilized in these naturally dyed light weight cotton scarves for Springtime. These scarves look like they have been found in a time capsule. They are a tribute to crafting the slow way, hands carved the blocks, hands stirred the natural dye bath, hand cut & sewed the cotton, and hands intentionally placed each block.
DETAILS:
100% natural cotton
light weight with tasseled edge
2 naturally dyed color options (mustard & petal pink)
22 inches by 78 inches
DISCLAIMER: This item is a testament to handmade goods and slow craft. There maybe inconsistencies with the printing or variation in colors from natural dyeing. However it is all those inconsistencies are part of the narrative of slow textiles and intentional goods. Hands made these goods not machines or chemicals.
