Black Licorice + Shibori

Having a black scarf in your wardrobe is a must. I spotted some wild fennel on the freeway off ramp coming home from Davis. And decided to harvest some for these three scarfs. The wool gauze dyed nicely to a golden yellow. Silk crepe de chine and silk chiffon dyed a very light yellow. Next I decided to over dye with black. Love the contrast of the black. While ironing these, the smell of the fennel with the black shibori patterns, made me think of black licorice.
