These spring scarves are the perfect spring accessory – warm enough to keep out the breeze and showers but also lovely and light. They are great if like me you’re not sure how to dress at the moment due to the unpredictable weather, sunny one minute then hail stones the next.
I’ve just added two new scarves to my shop and I have also dropped off three scarves to The Shop of Interest. Please take a look!
The scarf in the top image is made using a colour and weave technique. It uses a thick and a thin thread in the weft to create the colour contrasts. The scarf at the bottom is following a traditional Gothic Cross pattern and uses pink/cream for the warp and black for the weft.
Yep the time has come to get shopping – there are only 15 days left till Christmas! But don’t fear there are plenty of lovely gifts to buy and here are some places to start:
Why not pop along to Welcome Home in Partick or their wonderful pop up shop at CCA. I was there the other day and trying hard not to buy things for myself (HINT HINT).
Or pop along to The Shop of Interest who have a new blog here!
Finally and most importantly (teehee) why not come along the the Merchant Square Market this weekend? I will be there selling all sorts of handmade woven things (see the photo above) and my talented pal Carolyn Alexander is also going to be there – even more gift opportunities! It’s open 11am till 6pm on Saturday and 12pm till 6pm on Sunday. Santa’s Grotto will also be there – so do come along!
I’ve just spent the morning updating my shop with more scarves perfect for both men and women. Please take a look!
Below is a photo of one of the scarves I have added:
This is a beautiful wide scarf/shawl in a range of blues and greens. It has a complex diamond pattern and uses shiny tencel in the weft which shows up the design wonderfully. It has been finished with hand knotted 9cm tassels.
Approx 26.5cm wide X 80cm long.
Made from cotton and tencel. Handwash. £40. Buy here!
I like to use up every bit of weaving I do, even small samples. Here’s some photos of a ipod cover I made to match my pink headphones. I am thinking I might start making cards, perhaps for Christmas with the smaller scraps I’ve got.
