‘Will you please make scarves to go with the jackets?’

Yes! What a very good idea.

She asked for a minimalist black and white stripe jacket.

To go with it, I made a minimalist scarf with the same skinny stripes. And to echo the shibori that I used on the inside of the collar, I added larger patches of the same and other black and white shibori silks.

For a black and white with bits of red ‘Jet’ jacket [‘Jet’ because it’s about taking off into the stratosphere],

I made a black and white scarf with the same skinny stripes of red.

A waste not want not anecdote, this scarf uses the very last, tiniest little pieces of the lighter colored fabric. I was deep in my waste basket, pulling out the smallest scraps. There is nothing left of this one but threads and fuzz. A perfect example of the number one reason to wait until the project is completely finished before emptying the trash!
