Wild Side

A lacy Brioche design, highlighting the sparkle and beauty of sequins seductively woven throughout SWTC’s YANG yarn, produces this versatile scarf. Light and airy, this scarf wears beautifully in summer or winter, daytime or evening. Make it up in SWTC’s YIN for a more casual look (Yin is the same bamboo/silk yarn as Yang, without the sequins.) The scarf, pictured here, alternates both yarns.
