Handmade Crafts: Work Details and Photos for Bright and Handy scarf

Materials:

Hand spun Thick and Thin colour 100% wool from Nepal

This soft 100% wool has been handspun by the native women in Nepal. They are from a community of women within a co-op that helps them earn income and independence.

The technique used is basic Finger Knitting. Just make the length long enough to enable doubling to very loosely fit around neck. Sew up both sides together so that you end up with a loop (for the scarf tails) at the fold and 2 "tails".

Maintenance/Care

As with most handmade crafts, a bit of loving care will ensure the longevity and optimal upkeep of the piece.

• Wash separately. For color safety, do not wash together with other items.
• Recommended: Hand wash in Cold or Warm water.
  IMPORTANT! Do NOT wash in washing machine. Do NOT wash in hot water.
  100% Wool will shrink ("felt") with hot water and/or overly vigorous friction.
• Use dry towel to absorb moisture.
• Dry flat to prevent misshaping items.

Size: Free Size

Handmade Crafts - Handy *Hobo Chic* Scarf / Neck Warmer / Necklet

This handy necklet is finger knitted. Worked with 2 strands of mohair yarn and "laced" with sari silk which is worked into the scarf during knitting for a truly unique Hobo Chic look.

The flower (which is attached later - near the "loop" in the scarf") is also finger knitted. It is then sewn in a circle to form the flower. The center of the flower is made from a bunch of sari silk and sewn into place.

The necklet is made by folding the long strand of finger-knitted piece in 2, leave a small loop at the folded end and the rest sewn together, leaving a bit of tail. The tail will feed into the small loop at the folded edge for easy-wear.

The following photo shows what recycled sari silk looks like.

Please refer to as per above for Maintenance and Care for this handmade crafted item.
