A silk scarf has a special allure, embodied in its lustre and sheen
in the light and the soft, silky feel of the luxurious fabric
against your skin. Though feather-light it is wonderfully warm in
winter and a fantastic sunscreen in summer. This book teaches you
how to colour and print your own silk scarves, achieving fabulous
finishes. With 50 patterns and colourways to choose from, you can
ensure that you always have the perfect accessory for any event or
outfit, and enjoy the thrill of telling people that you have made
it yourself when they compliment you on it. The techniques in this
book are simple enough for a beginner to master, yet offer lots of
creative ideas for experienced colour crafters. All the scarves are
rated in terms of production time and level of difficulty, giving
you ample opportunity to practise the different skills involved on
easier projects before tackling more challenging finishes. Each
project is explained clearly with step-by-step instructions and
photographs, showing you how to create a wide range of stunning
colour effects. Recycled printing with found objects make up a
substantial section of the book, and you will be amazed at the
results you can achieve by using simple everyday items for
printing. Also learn how to make your own lino blocks for printing,
compose eye-catching designs and plan colour mixes that will dazzle
and delight.
