Woowoo




My design inspiration to combine ribs running both horizontally and vertically  in the same scarf seemed like a good idea at the time.  As this scarf progressed, it started to have the "perfect" female form - voluptuous,  yet evenly balanced (like Marilyn Monroe).  And how did people back in the day describe her curvy form?  Well,  "Woowoo!".
