Summer scarfs 夏日圍巾

 It's been pouring for the week. Just a day with a beam, I took the moment for the shots of the recent scarfs made with botanical imprints and dyes.  Though it's summer, here in Hong Kong air-con in the malls or in the office a scarf is always needed.  

 This two-sided scarf I printed with eucalyptus, pines (casaurina) and Lagerstroemia indica on the silk jersey.  Intended to do it delicacy with only a few strokes.

 

While the other side is a pure silk chiffon I dyed in turmeric pot then wrapped with rusty iron pipe to have the dark shades.  I sewed two pieces together.

 Here came the unique double printed scarf of two different materials.

 Another silk scarf (or wrap) I  printed with pines (casaurina) with a few eucalyptus to bring out spots of orange.  It's bundle boiled in turmeric pot  and intended to have the other end with turmeric yellow. 

 I cut the neckline in the middle.  So this scarf is multi-styles, just slip in and tie with the merino flower brooch (with loop), or just wrap around the neck or put on shoulders. 

 Simply a stylish scarf in summer breeze.
