A collaboration between my boyfriend Craig and myself. He came up with the idea for a mempo inspired scarf and sketched out some design ideas, which I later re interpreted and then silkscreened onto these fleece scarves! We’ve spent quite a few days going over the designs and silkscreening them all and stuff. And today we finally finished all the work and got to take some pictures to show them off! The Japanese Mempo is a traditional armoured face mask found on a Samurai Kabuto helmet. These masks not only protected their faces, but were used to intimidate foes on the battlefield. One of my friends was kind enough to let me take some pictures of her wearing one of the scarves.
