The Traveling Earth Scarf 2023 is a year-long project coordinated by indie dyer Shobha of Serendipitous Wool, who has brought together 12 crochet designers from the US to the UK to create an Earth-inspired scarf. The scarf has literally traveled around the world to each designer to add on their section each month. Each section is worked up in 2 different colorways that Shobha has carefully curated for this project. I hope by working up this scarf, you feel a sense of community as you bring together 12 different designs by independent designers. I know I sure did!
My section of the scarf is called Hibernal. It was inspired by the transition from Fall to Winter, as the darkness of the night creeps up earlier in the day and the colorful foliage starts to fall and decay. As November’s section of the Traveling Earth Scarf, this inspiration felt very fitting for the season!

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
For best care and to maximize color longevity, hand wash gently with wool wash or a delicate, pH neutral detergent in cool water sparingly.If you need some wool wash, try Eucalan Delicate Wash! Avoid excessive agitation when washing. Keep out of direct sunlight as much as possible and lay flat to dry. Although I thoroughly wash the skeins, some colors may bleed in the first couple of washes.
Tips for Use
Tips for Use
Due to the nature of hand dyed yarn, no two skeins are exactly the same. I recommend alternating skeins if working with more than one skein of the same color to ensure color consistency.
For ease of use, I recommend winding the yarn into a center-pull cake. I will happily wind your skeins into cakes before shipping them if you would like! Just let me know you would like your skeins wound in the notes section upon checkout.
