Dusty Plum – Handwoven Merino & Alpaca Scarf

Dusty Plum – Handwoven Merino & Alpaca Scarf

Elegant and understated, Dusty Plum weaves together soft shades of mauve, charcoal, and blush with a quiet sophistication. The fringe is a smoky grey that adds beautiful contrast and a soft drape. Made from a warm and breathable blend of merino and alpaca, it feels like a hug in scarf form—cosy, cloud-soft, and never bulky.

Hand-dyed using foraged botanicals, the colours are muted, organic, and rich with story. Whether layered over a winter coat or wrapped loosely indoors, this scarf is your go-to for timeless style with a gentle handmade heart.

Care Instructions for Handwoven Merino & Alpaca Scarves

Your Ashculme Textiles scarf is handwoven with care using a luxurious blend of merino wool and fleece from the artist’s own alpacas. Naturally dyed with foraged plant materials, each piece is one-of-a-kind and made to last when treated gently.

To keep your scarf looking and feeling its best, follow these simple care steps:

Washing:

Hand wash only, in cool water using a gentle wool-safe detergent.

Do not soak for extended periods, and avoid harsh agitation or wringing.

Gently press out excess water without twisting or scrubbing.

Drying:

Lay flat on a clean towel and roll to remove moisture.

Reshape if needed, and allow to air dry flat out of direct sunlight or heat sources.

Storing:

Fold loosely and store in a cool, dry place.

Avoid hanging for long periods, as this may distort the shape over time.

To deter moths, use natural repellents like cedarwood blocks or lavender sachets.

Please avoid:

Machine washing or tumble drying.

Bleach, stain removers, or fabric softeners.

Ironing directly (use a steamer at a safe distance if needed).

These garments are made to be cherished—soft, warm, and naturally breathable. With a little care, your scarf will remain a timeless and wearable piece of slow fashion for many seasons to come.
