Echo ‘Floral Bouquet’ Silk Scarf

I’m thinking ahead when we will be able to get away with a turtleneck sweater instead of a bulky coat and I think this scarf definitely will take the outfit up a degree. You could match the sweater up with a pair of jeans and the minute you add this scarf, you will start turning heads.

But how about how to care for this scarf. Is it possible to handwash it or is that strictly a no-no? So, I went looking.

I found some really good advice here and here. So we now have our scarves and our lingerie… covered!

And did you know…
“Silkworms, offspring of moths, produce their highly-desirable, pricey silk, by spewing out thread from tiny holes in their jaws, which they use to spin into their egg-bearing cocoons. This entire production takes a mere 72 hours, during which time they produce between 500-1200 silken threads. These miniature, mulberry leaf-munching marvels lay, at minimum, 500 eggs each spring, thereby increasing the number of workers for the production line.”
