82% Rayon - 18% Silk Cut velvet is all the rage now, and you can see these in high class department stores for $60-$90. For us, it's just another beautiful scarf and we can sell them fairly economically, as we do all the scarves. The thing that's amazing about these is that just dyeing them a solid color with either Cotton (Fiber Reactive) or Silk (Acid) dyes yields a fabulous result. The Rayon pile and the silk Chiffon backing fabric can dye in different shades - very neat! Even more fun, you can dye them with our Alter Ego dyes to get totally different colors on the rayon and silk. These are also very luxurious and soft, as well as being beautiful, so they make fantastic gifts!

These are a delight to dye! They love color, and the nap takes the dye differently from the backing, making some wonderfully dramatic effects. They simply glow....... Cream rinse is indeed a huge help with the fringe.

Gorgeous. I dyed them first with Jacquard acid dyes and then with fiber reactive dyes, the background and foreground came out either different colors completely, or different shades. The colors on the velvet were luminescent.

They are wonderful when dyed though their fringes need more patience on my part than I can always guarantee... a soaking in fabric softener helps

I had some of these scarves for years not knowing what to do with them. After finding the Alter Ego Dyes, I've reordered twice!

These dye easily and everyone who sees them says "Wow!" They make me look like an expert while I am just playing in the kitchen.

I love these. They dye so beautifully. I use Jaquard silk dyes and they turn out lovely.

Takes fiber reactive dyes well--brilliant color and my customers love the fringe! After dyeing, the fringe does get a bit stiff though. A bit expensive but can hopefully sell for more.

I dyed the scarves and sold a lot of them. People like them a lot. I do think they are a tad short for folding in half, which some people like to do.

These lovely scarves really pull in the color when you dye them, so use restraint on the dye. THey are however a favorite among my friends.
