They are 100% silk twill and 20&#8243; X 70&#8243; with a hand-rolled hem. I think they turned out beautifully and I even have the perfect blue and black raincoat to wear it with.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.janesassaman.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Sassaman-Garden-Scarf-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-2521\" src=\"http:\/\/www.janesassaman.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Sassaman-Garden-Scarf-2.jpg\" alt=\"Sassaman Garden Scarf 2\" width=\"463\" height=\"335\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.janesassaman.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Sassaman-Garden-Scarf-2.jpg 463w, https:\/\/www.janesassaman.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/Sassaman-Garden-Scarf-2-300x217.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 463px) 100vw, 463px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">I like to let my scarves hang long and comfortably over my shoulders for the free-flowing Isadora Duncan effect. But here you can see that there are many other ways to drape them. I really like the contrast of the stripes with the florals as they twist in and around each other.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Best of all, they are reasonably priced\u00a0 and will fit anybody. So, perhaps this could be a wonderful way to get your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.janesassaman.com\/store.php?cat=21\">holiday shopping<\/a> done early this year!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Heading for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allinstitchesmn.com\/\">All In Stitches<\/a> in Zumbrota, MN tomorrow.
