LoginWhen she learned she'd be designing with Jagger Spun yarns for this Loom Theory project, designer Tammy Bast was absolutely delighted. She loves color, so the Kokadjo, a merino and silk blend, really called out.
When the yarn arrived and Tammy knew she needed to design a scarf that would highlight not just the colors, but also the yarn’s incredible plush feel. The floats in rosepath twill keep the sumptuous feel, and stripes at the ends of the scarf create a gorgeous color gamp. Wear this brightly colored lightweight scarf in spring, when the mornings are still a little chilly, paired with a light jacket. Throw it around your shoulders for a summer evening seaside stroll. Wear it all winter with your favorite turtleneck to remind you on the darkest days that spring will come again. This is an all-season scarf.
