I haven't been posting many Vera scarves lately, but I couldn't resist talking about this one simply because the colors are so warm and colorful. Perfect for this time of year, in fact! the color palette is actually pretty amazing: the batik pattern contains red, fuchsia, pink, yellow, gold, and orange all layered together creating a harmonious effect that many textile designers couldn't pull off this well.
Today seems to be a very "Vera" day. Before I posted this find, I wrote a short article about an amazing collection of Vera designs I found this week on YouTube. If you're a Vera enthusiast, you really should check it out, too.
