At just over 6ft long, this piece is finely hand woven from the most luxurious yarns: a blend of baby alpaca, linen and silk. The tones of wet sand and water have a slight lustre, with the blues and aquatic greens reminiscent of summer ripples and shady spots under willow trees. It is a very tactile piece with a beautiful silky drape, soft and warm in winter and autumn, but also suitable for wearing on cooler spring and summer days.
Finished at each end with a fringe of hand-twisted and knotted tassels.
Size (excluding tassels) 188cm/74" long, 34cm/" wide.
Size (including tassels) 210cm/82.5" long, 34cm/" wide.
Weight; 194g/11.3oz
50% baby alpaca, 25% linen, 25% silk.
Hand-wash in lukewarm water with wool detergent. To dry, lay flat on a large towel and roll up like a Swiss roll, squeezing gently. Alternatively, gently machine wash on a cold wool cycle with a small amount of wool detergent. Natural dry on a clothes airer or washing line. DO NOT TUMBLE DRY.
This yarn is hand-dyed in Cornwall in small batches by one of my favourite small indie dyers.
