Handloomed Noil Gauze Silk Scarf 45 x 180cm with fringe – Natural White

Crafted from beautifully soft handloomed noil silk gauze, this lightweight scarf is the perfect blank canvas for your creative ideas. Measuring 45 x 180cm, it is ready to be transformed using natural dyes, acid dyes, eco printing, silk painting and a wide range of surface design techniques. The weight of each scarf is approx 145gm, which is around 160gsm fabric weight. The distinctive character of noil silk gives this scarf a gently textured appearance with a soft, matte finish. Unlike smooth silk fabrics, noil has a subtle slub that adds depth and interest to both dyed and undyed work, making every finished piece unique. Ideal for fibre artists, textile students and makers, these scarves readily absorb colour to produce rich, luminous results. Whether creating a one-of-a-kind wearable artwork, experimenting with botanical printing, or teaching dyeing workshops, this versatile scarf provides an excellent foundation for creative exploration. As each scarf is handloomed, slight variations in weave, texture and dimensions are a natural characteristic of the fabric and add to the individuality and charm of every piece. This scarf dyes beautifully with all silk and wool dyes, including Procion MX, Landscape Dyes, and is particularly stunning when eco-dyed or printed with botanical dyes. Tip: We recommend giving the scarf a good wash before dyeing to remove any remaining sericin and help soften and relax the weave.
