Nepalese Scarf with Crush Pleating

Violet and pleated into zigzag ripples, knotted at the top like a necktie.

This scarf is from Nepal. It is silk & wool. Handmade scarves vary a little from piece to piece, which is part of their appeal. Royal purple ground gathered into dense herringbone-like pleats along its whole length. The top is twisted into a knot. Short purple fringe finishes the bottom end. The pleats look crisp and evenly spaced.

Crimped to a tee and proud of every ridge.
