Light brown alpaca

My latest two scarves are in a light brown (fawn) 4-ply alpaca yarn from Shamwani Alpaca stud in Western Australia. Both are in the same pattern but slightly different lengths. I was trying for 1800mm and 1600mm but the second one became longer as I used up all the available warp. The first is 1840mm x 215mm and weighs 141g, whilst the second is 1740mm x 205mm and weighs 133g.Both scarves will be for sale on my stall at the Balingup Medieval Carnivale 27-28 August.

White Australian Alpaca

Have woven two scarves using a white 100% Australian Alpaca 4-ply yarn from Tailored Strands. The two scarves are identical and measure 1800mm x 195mm and weighs 124g.They will both be on sale on my stall at the Balingup Medieval Carnivale 27-28 August.

Green Italian alpaca

Some more yarn left over from a knitting project has been woven into a scarf. The yarn was a 4-ply from Laines du Nord, called Ciliegia, and is green in colour. It is woven in a lace like pattern. The scarf is 1800mm x 230mm and weighs 157g.It has been claimed by the knitter to match the jumper she has just completed.

Brown woollen scarves

I have woven two interesting scarves in a tabby weave using a Diamuseefine MSF109 yarn. In the first one I have used this yarn for both the warp and the weft. It is 1880mm x 215mm and weighs 97g. For the second I used a white possum/merino yarn as the warp and the MSF109 yarn as the weft. It is 1740mm x 205mm and weighs 84g.Both scarves will be on sale on my stall at the Balingup Medieval Carnivale 27-28 August.

Multicoloured Indian Silk

As something different I have woven two scarves using a multicoloured Indian Silk yarn. The first is woven using an hand-dyed blue wool/silk yarn as the warf and is 1580mm x 210mm and weighs 166g. For the second I used three coloured 2-ply cashmere (maroon, orange and peachy) from Knitter's Addiction as the warf. This scarf is 1630mm x 170mm and weighs 132g. Both scarves are very chunky but also very soft. The first has already been "claimed" but the second will be on sale at my stall at the Balingup Medieval Carnivale 27-28 August.

Noro Silk Garden

I have used up 100g of Noro Silk Garden (Fine) yarn from a knitting project by weaving a scarf in tabby (plain) weave. The interest lies in the colours of the yarn, not in a pattern. The scarf is 1610mm x 165mm and weighs 88g.

It looks great with the knitted garment so it is not available for sale!

Two Yarns from Wells

Whilst on holiday recently in the UK I purchased two 50g balls of fancy synthetic yarns from a stall at the Wells (Somerset) Saturday market.
I have used the yarns as warps and a black wool yarn as the wefts in open weave tabby. Lightweight summer scarves have resulted, or rather, a fashion accessory with no warmth. The first scarf is 1690mm x 230mm and weighs 60g. The second scarf is 1650mm x 250mm and weighs 57g.Both scarves will be on my stall at the Balingup Medieval Carnivale 27-28 August.
