As I mentioned in the recent post about the Chino <\/a>scarves, Tammy’s <\/a>recent batch of dyeing was remarkably deep and rich in color. <\/p>\n

Just like with the Chino, I’d used her Poinsettia colorway before and liked it, but I LOVE the new one. Made from three colors — two reds and a purple — the resulting handwoven rayon chenille scarf is beautiful.

I do love both red and purple, and wear them both fairly often. Nope, I’m not a Red Hat Lady<\/a>. I’ve just always liked bright, rich colors. And Jenny Joseph’s poem<\/a> that gave rise to these groups around the world. But I’ve liked both the colors and the poem for decades, long before I was old enough to qualify as an old lady. I distinctly remember being in my 20s when someone asked me what my favorite color was, and when I answered “red,” they told me it couldn’t be. Something about my personality made them think that red couldn’t be my favorite color. But it was. I wore it often then, and still do. Ditto purple.<\/p>\n

(As planned, I did get these handwoven rayon chenille scarves up on my website<\/a> before I wrote this post.) <\/p>\n
