Elegant Flat Crepe shawls and scarves with absolutely beautiful 100% silk fringe. Flat Crepe is like a cross between Crepe de Chine and Habotai. While it has the weight of Habotai, the flattened Crepe weave is much shinier. It drapes well and is an excellent surface for painting. The hems are hand sewn with silk thread in China. The fringe is difficult to make, hard to get, and not cheap. Very elegant!

Please note: The 8"x54" 11"x60", 14"x72" sizes have 4.5" fringe only at the two ends, so you can use them as scarves. Both the 35"x35" and 44"x44" sizes have 7" fringe on all four sides, so you can use them like shawls.  The fringe style of the 35"x35" and 44"x44" is different from the other sizes (please see pictures above left).

We recommend (especially if you are re-selling) to pre-wash all silk in Hot water and Synthrapol or our Professional Textile Detergent before dyeing or painting to remove any leftover residue from the silk worms (Seracin) or finger prints and other stuff that can cause the fabric to dye unevenly. Our product Milsoft is excellent for restoring the soft hand to silk after dyeing.

Remember, items with fringe can't just be thrown in the washer! Hand wash with care. Some folks say they have great success by confining the fringe in some way, like with some long chain basting stitches.

The 44" square scarf is a nice big size that allows for enough space to design something intricate in tiedye/tritik. The fringe tangles but is easily untangled with gentle pulls--the silk threads slide against each other rather than sticking together the way cotton fiber does. They make nice table covers, too.

They are lovely and exactly as described. I wish you had a larger size with a heavier silk too.

I made the mistake of dyeing one of these in the machine in a lingerie bag thinking that would keep the fringe from tangling. Nope! However, an hour of untangling later, I had a stunning, rich-colored, soft, elegant scarf. (Now I hand wash only :)

These gems are STUNNING when dyed :) I use Dharma's Procion dyes and then hand wash in Synthropol and hang dry. Don't judge the final product until AFTER you've ironed it. Simply gorgeous! I've found my flat iron (as in for my hair) is helpful getting the fringe back into presentable shape if it's gotten a little crunched up :)

Very nice. Loved the shine. I combed out the fringe with a hair pick when dyeing. One of six had a spot about an inch and a half long and an inch wide that grabbed the dye and made a dark spot. It had been prewashed in Synthrapol.
