Item 519: Reversible Rainbow Helix Tube Scarf
Description: This generously-sized, easy-care, unisex scarf is special. Its tube construction makes it reversible (front-to-back) and gives you two layers of warmth. In addition, the scarf's open, rolled ends allow you to turn it inside out for a very different and equally appealing look.
The main side of the fabric, pictured here, features striped blocks of rainbow colors knit in stockinette stitch against a white background. Click here for a closer view of this side of the fabric. Because the colors spiral around each other continuously, helix-style--like the colors in a barber shop pole--you won't find any unsightly "jogs" at the color changes. The knitter took great care to weave in the many yarn tails as invisibly as possible, rendering the fabric, and the tube, reversible.
Size: 7" wide x 74.5" long (unstretched)
Colors: white, claret, pumpkin, butterscotch, kelly green, royal blue, and amethyst
Fiber content: 100% acrylic
Care: Turn inside out and place in a mesh bag. Machine wash, gentle cycle, in lukewarm water with mild soap. Briefly tumble dry low on the delicate setting. Lay flat to finish drying. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean.

Item 519: Reversible Rainbow Helix Tube Scarf
Description: This generously-sized, easy-care, unisex scarf is special. Its tube construction makes it reversible (front-to-back) and gives you two layers of warmth. In addition, the scarf's open, rolled ends allow you to turn it inside out for a very different and equally appealing look.
The main side of the fabric, pictured here, features striped blocks of rainbow colors knit in stockinette stitch against a white background. Click here for a closer view of this side of the fabric. Because the colors spiral around each other continuously, helix-style--like the colors in a barber shop pole--you won't find any unsightly "jogs" at the color changes. The knitter took great care to weave in the many yarn tails as invisibly as possible, rendering the fabric, and the tube, reversible.
Size: 7" wide x 74.5" long (unstretched)
Colors: white, claret, pumpkin, butterscotch, kelly green, royal blue, and amethyst
Fiber content: 100% acrylic
Care: Turn inside out and place in a mesh bag. Machine wash, gentle cycle, in lukewarm water with mild soap. Briefly tumble dry low on the delicate setting. Lay flat to finish drying. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean.

Item 525: Golden Rose Ruffled & Ruched Scarf (shown with collar down)
Description: This sunny, innovative statement piece can be styled in many different ways—as a neck-warmer or short scarf—by fastening multiple layers of fabric using the coordinating knitted rose brooch. Crafted of American-made yarn spun from four luxurious natural fibers, this scarf features ruched fabric, garter stitch lengthwise stripes, and elegant, leaf-like ruffles along both edges.
Click here to see this scarf styled with the ruffled edge framing the face.
Size: 8" wide x 27" long (28" long along the ruffled edges). The 3-dimensional rose brooch is 4" in diameter.
Color: semi-solid marigold (Note: the yarn's four natural fibers took the dye differently, creating lighter and darker tones which lend great visual interest to the knitted fabric.)
Fiber content: 50% merino wool, 20% organic cotton, 15% linen, 15% soya fiber
Care: Hand wash cool, gently, with mild soap or no-rinse wool wash. Do not twist, rub, or wring. Roll in a towel, squeeze, reshape, and manually restore the ruching. Dry flat.

Item 519: Reversible Rainbow Helix Tube Scarf
Description: This generously-sized, easy-care, unisex scarf is special. Its tube construction makes it reversible (front-to-back) and gives you two layers of warmth. In addition, the scarf's open, rolled ends allow you to turn it inside out for a very different and equally appealing look.
The main side of the fabric, pictured here, features striped blocks of rainbow colors knit in stockinette stitch against a white background. Click here for a closer view of this side of the fabric. Because the colors spiral around each other continuously, helix-style--like the colors in a barber shop pole--you won't find any unsightly "jogs" at the color changes. The knitter took great care to weave in the many yarn tails as invisibly as possible, rendering the fabric, and the tube, reversible.
Size: 7" wide x 74.5" long (unstretched)
Colors: white, claret, pumpkin, butterscotch, kelly green, royal blue, and amethyst
Fiber content: 100% acrylic
Care: Turn inside out and place in a mesh bag. Machine wash, gentle cycle, in lukewarm water with mild soap. Briefly tumble dry low on the delicate setting. Lay flat to finish drying. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean.

Item 400: Pink Beach Reversible Diagonal Scarf
Description: A one-of-a-kind, four-season, reversible scarf made from cotton-rich yarns which never can be obtained again. On one side, a tricolor, chunky textured yarn dominates, while a solid-colored, nubby cotton yarn provides contrasting-but-harmonious diagonal ticking.

Colors: Natural/cream, soft pink, and pale blue
Fiber content: 76.5% cotton, 15% wool, 15% acrylic, 3.5% nylon (Note: people with wool sensitivities most likely would NOT be bothered by the small amount of wool in one of these yarns; there is no itchiness, and both yarns are soft and flexible.)
Care: Hand wash cool, very gently, with mild soap. Do not wring or agitate. Roll in a towel, squeeze, reshape to original dimensions, and lay flat to dry. May dry clean instead.
