Sunrise over the South of the Island. Here is the scarf I wove on my Ashford Knitters Loom.
I selected a squishy, pleasing bunch of yarns from my stash that reflected the colours of the Dawn - wools, mohair, and various mixed fibres
I love this simple "make it up as you go along" style of weaving. A rigid heddle loom is ideal for this as I'm able to use the direct warping method- choosing the colours as I dress the loom. I decided that the weft for weaving needed to be 2 strands of yarn; one pale white of a brushed wool blend and the other a pale peach in mohair. This gave me a slightly fluffy woven scarf with a soft squishy feel and allowed the colours in the warp to define the pattern. I twisted the fringes to finish.
It was a fun happy little project. I shall be putting it in my Etsy shop.
