Shielagh Tacey Handwoven

I’ve finally had the time to get back to my wonderful Schacht Baby Wolf – happy happy happy.

I decided to make a scarf for myself in ‘Shielagh colours’ using the new yarn I got in America. I’m also making the blocks more like squares rather than rectangles.

I have also started designing my next scarf, using the same structure but adjusting the column widths. I am going to need to make some samples experimenting with the variations I can create. Lots to do!

While I was away in America I thought it’d be a good idea to start a blog, firstly cause I never update my website.. but also because I met a bunch of lovely people at NEWS (New England Weaving Seminar) who I would like to be able to share my weaving with.

Since I got back to the UK I’ve already made a scarf using a structure my aunt taught me at her class and colours requested by carolyn ( http://carolyn-alexander.blogspot.com/) as it is her birthday present. Here are a few photos of it on my loom. It is currently waiting to dry and be pressed then I’ll take a photo of the finished result.
