Blue and Green on Black

No embroidery.

This one was fun to make. The black silk noil (raw silk) is soft and easy to sew and shows fewer wrinkles than the white noil. This is definitely my go-to fabric from now on when making a black tallit. The fabric is a true black and has a great, soft drape that makes it easy to wear. The vivid royal blue and bottle green contrast nicely with the black, and I added a small amount of peacock green that I had left from earlier projects - too little to use it as a main feature.

The person who bought this asked me to add an embroidered blessing on the atarah, and so the tallit ended up taking on a different look.
