Shielagh Tacey Handwoven

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

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.
