Weaving a Place in Time Scarf
Rebecca Morris always loved the colorful weather maps seen online, on television, and in the newspaper. With a color scale to represent and connect isotherms (areas of similar temperature), these maps beautifully summarize weather. They include a stunning array of colors, and no two days are exactly alike. I took inspiration from these maps and wondered, what if I could weave something to honor a specific moment in space and time?
From this idea, she designed this stunning scarf in blues, turquoise and purples.
