WEAVING BY CRAIG HART OF VANDALIA, IL

These colorful scarves are handwoven of Tencel which is a silky fiber that holds a vibrant color. The blue on on the far left is about 80 inches long and about 4 inches wide. Would go great with denim, or dress up a black coat. Craig Hart lives in Vandalia and does all kinds of things with silk. I'll show you more later.
