Sosumi Weaving creates this artistic, OK Beemer Scarf or Shawl in Passion and Paprika.

Pamela's weaving utilizes 100% bamboo yarn, spun from the cellulose of that highly renewable plant material. Like the cane, the yarn is crazy strong; the dyes are fast, permanent, and seriously non-bleeding. Once your handwoven scarf comes off the loom and through the washer and dryer, the hand and drape resemble that of a silk/cashmere blend.

These scarves are geometric, and sculptural in pattern, and are both soft to the touch and elegant to the eye.

About Sosumi Weaving, Pamela Whitlock

Pamela Whitlock of Sosumi Weaving's bamboo fiber scarves are mixed with recycled sari silks and banana fiber. The bamboo fiber scarves are sculptural in pattern and elegant to both hands and eyes.

Pamela's weaving utilizes 100% bamboo yarn, spun from the cellulose of that highly renewable plant material.

Pamela Whitlock's weaving techniques include multi-harness shadow weave color, two-harness color, and weave effect. In addition to her line of luxurious scarves woven of rayon chenille and ribbon or "flag" yarns, she has most recently developed a new line using 100% bamboo fiber, sometimes mixed with recycled sari silks/banana fiber.

Artist Statement: "I consider myself to be a craftsman as well as an artist. I create pieces that have both the practical function of providing warmth to the wearer, as well as the aesthetic value of enhancing the beauty of everyday life. My influences were my mother, an avid knitter, and Jack Lenor Larsen, whose wonderful fabrics covered the furniture in my childhood home."

Handmade in the USA.
