1 acrylic, 2 alpacas

After completing all my alpaca yarns I turned to a "fun" scarf. This is in a Pierre Cardin Shangrila yarn (67%acrylic/22%mohair/others) as the warp and a gold lame weft. A multicoloured scarf was woven 1870mm x 185mm weighing 103g.
I went to Kalamunda Market on 4 September and met Derek and Daphne from Shamwani Alpaca Stud. I purchased some of their grey (#47) and light brown (#48) yarns and have subsequently woven two scarves. The grey one is 1610mm x 185mm and weighs 133g. The light brown one is 1570mm x 190mm and weighs 131g. The two lovely soft and patterned scarves will be on sale at Shamwani's stall at next month's Kalamunda Market.
