Guatemalan All-season Scarf
In a small adobe village along Guatemala's Lake Atitlán, indigenous men and women continue the textile tradition that has been part of the region for centuries. Women separate thread colors and set up the warp and weft pattern, and men work the European-style treadle looms that were introduced by Spaniards in the 15th century. From dyeing the natural thread to finishing the knotted fringe, every step is completed by hand. The vivid colors and loose gossamer weave of this all-season 100% cotton scarf make it a beautiful pick-me-up accessory for those still-gray spring days, and it's lightweight enough to pack for even the shortest trip. Hand-wash. Handmade in Guatemala. 9''W x 75''L
