A scarf fit for a vagabond king.

                                  Happy Father's Day Capt. Norman G. De Weir.

Always inspired by the ''Ultimate Vagabond'', my dad, I have designed a series of scarves for men. Loosely woven linen and silk and linen, dyed with madder root, iron, pomegranate and indigo.

Fishing for a look.

I have been searching high and low for this nauti- net look for my summer scarves. Linen and linen/silk blend netting dye beautifully with madder root, indigo, and pomegranate with iron. All on Etsy until they got retail.

Or under one. This sky blue and white linen duvet set was dyed with indigo is a dream.

Sayulita Color story.

I hesitate even to share the secret of the beautiful little town in Mexico, Sayulita. But that would be selfish... tsk, tsk....
We went for a week and could have easily become one of those ex- pat couples that move there, buy a VW, adopt a dog and stay forever...
Here is just a taste of the color and flavor of this lovely place. My scarves work well here!
We are going back in December. We will be sure to visit our friends ( the 2 handsome blokes in photos) who own the best juice bar in Sayulita, Orangy.
