Ths elegant scarf is woven mostly from a blend of merino and silk spun into yarn by hand by my wife Nicole. The handspun yarn really gives it extra character. You can see how the white silk is more prevalent in some spots than others. The yarn is also varied in thickness, making it quite different from commercially produced yarns.

A closer look at this scarf

The blend of merino and silk, gently spun, makes this scarf very soft to touch.
