Shielagh Tacey Handwoven

I decided to make a simple striped scarf to try out colour blends. Each stripe has three colours and will be a great reference for future colour experiments.

As the summer ends I’m getting ready to make some lovely new scarves. This was my first experiment keeping to autumnal colours.

This scarf uses the same structure as “Carolyn’s Scarf”. I wanted to see what happened when I tried different widths for the blocks. I kept the colours simple using obvious light and dark contrasts in each block so the finished effect is clear. When I was weaving I changed the length of the blocks by eye.
