Checkered Orange Throw

This orange throw features charming checks and has been yarn-dyed by artisans and brought to you by Home Therapy.  The yarns of the cloth are dyed before it is woven.  However, this process is not employed to achieve a solid-colored cloth.  Instead, multiple, complex stripes and checkered patterns are achieved by carefully dyeing the yarn with select colors that are known only to the artisans.  Unlike printed designs, yarn-dyed offerings are authentic, rich in color, and equally decorated both sides of the textile.  Demanding time, energy and focus, yarn-dyeing is not a method of choice for mass manufacturers.  It is the local weavers and artisans who strive to keep this technique alive!
