Silk Scarves

I sent for some silks from The Georgia Yarn co in USA recently and was so excited to get them.  Here are the first three scarves, the top one in a fancy twill with 'Apricot' Blush' warp and 'Rio Red' weft. The other two are in less complicated twill variations and hve 'Fusion Coral' warp and weft.  Apart from the rather strange names I love working with the silk and look forward to getting more colours when Michael has his promised silk sale in May.  I still have 'Poppy Red' on hand to look forward to.
Here are some close-ups.
I was surprised by the amount of loose dye that washed out of these yarns but otherwise love them.
