Product Insights
The Pesofati Kukasta Kukkaan Scarf by Marimekko is a 100% organic cotton square with a non-repeating, loose-painted flower pattern that reveals different arrangements with each fold, symbolizing courage. Designed by veteran textile artist Erja Hirvi and printed at Marimekko's Helsinki mill, the scarf's stitched hem prevents fraying and its printed logo eliminates tag bulk, while the fine cotton weave withstands repeated folding. All Pesofati scarves share identical construction: 66 cm organic cotton, stitched edges, and printed logo. The unique print originated from an unlimited painting exercise and was selected as the first from 50 sketches.
