Description
Nepal is known for its wool and fiber arts, and this crafty scarf shows them off in rich color. Artisans in Kathmandu layer patches of vintage silk saris and use a technique called nuno felting to create the dark, stained glass–like outline and a lightweight backing out of merino wool roving. Nuno felting uses warm water, soap, and hand-scrubbing to entangle the wool fibers with the weave of the silk, creating a highly textured fabric that drapes beautifully.

The sari fabric is over-dyed in either deep Red or cool Blue so that while no two scarves will be exactly the same, they will share a harmonious color palette.

Nice scarf but very stiff because of material! I prefer softer more pliable scarves!
