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!
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.
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.
