Welcome to my website. These are design samples of some of my silk scarves. Each is original and unique. The process for making these scarves is based on the ancient Japanese art of shibori which uses resist dying techniques. This involves folding, binding, and tying in many different styles creating different patterns. Sometimes clamps are used to hold the folds and other times string is used to make different patterns. Some alternative processes based on this ancient tradition have been used as well and all have been hand dyed, some multiple times. It can be a long process when layering patterns and colors as seen in some of these scarves.
