Potyomkin (Потёмкин) scarf

I've made this scarf for a Russian friend of mine who's a guitar player. What he wanted was a simply elegant accessory that compliments the musician's style without attracting too much attention to itself, with minimalistic feel to it. I decided to use such subdued colours and add a bit of a shiny texture in order for it to look better on stage. I believe this garment creates a truly enigmatic look.
Russian winter turned out to be really long this year, so the scarf is still in use!

"Phoenix" warm and colorful bright orange nunofelted wrap shawl

"The phoenix is described as a bird with a colorful plumage and a tail of gold and scarlet (or purple, blue, and green according to some legends). It has a 500 to 1000 year life-cycle, near the end of which it builds itself a nest of twigs that then ignites; both nest and bird burn fiercely and are reduced to ashes, from which a new, young phoenix or phoenix egg arises, reborn anew to live again. The new phoenix is destined to live as long as its old self." Wiki
