4 out of 5 starsThe colors of this scarf are beautiful! And it is very soft and comfy and long, but the weave is simple, loose, and quite uneven, as if care was not taken to pack the weft consistently, so in some very loose rows the threads clump and the scarf appears to have holes that can be moved about, which is disappointing. The quality of the weaving should be better for the price asked, but the dye is lovely.

Thank you again for your purchase, and for posting a review. I just wanted to make note that the loose rows or "holes" in the scarf that you are referring to, are an inherent result of the shibori weaving and dying process. Every few rows, a weft thread is woven through, and loops are left on the selvedge. Once the piece is off the loom and has had its initial dye, the loops are then pulled tight, which scrunches up the piece, and it is then dyed again. This results in the tie-dye effect. These weft threads are then cut out of the piece, leaving small spaces every few rows. The choice of a simple plain weave is intentional in this piece as well, as it shows off the shibori process and the resulting dye patterns. I hope this clears up any confusion you had regarding the quality of this piece and the price.

5 out of 5 starsI love the style of the citrus design on my mug and the contrasting waves on the other side. The weight is perfect and my coffee stays nice and warm.
