This brown and blue striped cotton scarf comes straight from nature.
What makes this scarf so special is that the brown yarn is not dyed.
It is the natural colour of the cotton as it grows in Thailand.
The blue yarn of the check pattern is dyed with natural dyes from the indigo plant.
The dark blue yarn has had more indigo dye baths than the light blue.
The cotton was spun by hand by the weaver.
She then wove the fabric for you in a few days.
This hand-spun brown and blue boxed cotton scarf has many hours of work in it.
