35" Rose Violet Wild Rag
These wild rags are a rich rose violet hue.
Please note, photos are representative of the hues and are not necessarily of the exact rag you will receive.
All scarves are one of a kind and show slight variation. I do my best to accurately represent the colors of each rag, but I’ll be honest - it’s hard! Each scarf will have it’s own bits of character. While I always strive for consistency in color, sometimes its the movements across the scarf that make it unique and beautiful. .
Natural dyes are living, dynamic hues. They are sensitive to prolonged sunlight and frequent washing. To enjoy the vibrancy of your colors for as long as possible, I recommend storing your wild rags out of direct sunlight and only washing when necessary. Best practice is to hand-wash with cool water and a pH neutral, liquid soap. These rags will evolve over time, just as we do. If you have any questions about wild rag care, please reach out.
Scarves are 35”x 35” and 12 mm silk charmeuse with a hand sewn hem.

Care Tips
-
The natural dye of your wild rag is a living, dynamic hue. As such, it reacts to elements of nature, such as metals, sunlight, and acidity. To extend the longevity and vibrancy of your living color, it is best to store your scarf out of direct sunlight and to always hand wash with cold water and a small dose of liquid, pH neutral detergent. This tends to include most of the additive-free detergents commonly found at any grocery store (such as free and clear). Do not use a washing machine, as the metal patterns in the machine can stain your rag. I recommend hanging your silk to dry, although you may use a non-heated setting on your dryer. Exposing your rag to metals, particularly iron, may result in staining.

While I only use dyes that are known to be color fast - meaning they hold their color, your wild rag may change over time, depending on the dye. Some dyes will fade, while others may shift and pull different hues. To minimize or slow changes to your rag over time, it is best to store the rag out of direct sunlight, and to only wash when needed, following the care instructions above. Silk does not require frequent washings. I wash mine less than once a year. Changes may also occur to the hue if it is exposed to a different pH. This includes anything particularly acidic (such as citrus), laundry detergents with scents, etc.

Yes! Every single wild rag is hand dyed, and each wild rag is completely unique. While I may use the same recipes, colors may vary because of the location the plant was grown, the season it was harvested in, etc. Thus, I cannot necessarily replicate a color exactly. Many of the photos posted on the website are representative of the scarf you are purchasing online, but may not match the exact wild rag you receive. As I do not know how the wild rag will appear until after the final washing, and am not always able to exactly replicate specific colors, I do not take pre-orders and am not able to accommodate customs.
