Square Silk Scarf in Pink - Natural Dyes - Hand Rolled Edges
Care For Your Marree Clothing
With proper care, your hand-dyed Marree clothing will last a very long time. You might even hand it down to a loved one, unless they take it first ;-)
We preshrink all of our garments after the process of hand dyeing. You won't need to worry about shrinkage if you tumble dry on low or hang dry.
Don't worry, the botanical colors won't fall out in the wash.
Cotton, Hemp and Linen Clothing
Machine Wash Cold
Every Marree garment holds up very well if you machine wash them with cold water. It’s proven to effectively clean clothing and make them last longer than washing in hot water, while saving up to 80% of the energy used to wash clothes. Wash with similar colors. Hang to dry either on a hanger or a clothing rack. Never use bleach. Dry cleaning is never recommended for naturally dyed clothing. The chemicals are very harsh.
To Dry, No Ironing Necessary
Line dry or tumble dry low. If you have my organic cotton flannel or sweats, try putting them on fresh out of the dryer, you won't regret it. If your garment has a collar or placket, flatten them as the garment dries. Ironing isn't necessary as we use high quality organic fabrics, which makes them ideal for travel.
Exception: Linen Scarves Need To Be Hand Washed
The only piece that absolutely needs to be hand washed is the linen scarf. Because this scarf is a very fine, loose construction, you need to hand wash. Fill a sink with cold water. Add a tablespoon of delicate soap. We recommend a brand like Method for eco-friendly soap. Place the scarf into the water, gently swish it around for a few minutes. Drain and refill the sink with clean, cold water, rinsing your scarf by swirling it around once more. Gently press the garment to remove excess water, but be careful to not wring or twist. Reshape the garment on a dry towel, roll up the towel while pressing, to help get rid of excess water. Finally, reshape the scarf and lay it flat on a drying rack to air dry.

It's important for us to rise up against the fast fashion industry. Read on to learn about the Modern Shibori clothing brand and its sustainable practices:
1. Organic Fabrics for eco-fashion and sustainable clothing
We use GOTS-certified natural fibers such as organic cotton, organic linen, and OEKO-TEX Mulberry silk in our supply chain.

We use eco conscious packaging that’s made from recycled material, and is sometimes compostable. We also save our upcycled and recycled fabrics to make jackets and tote bags out of these materials.
