3 Silks for Upmarket

I have been busy weaving scarves ready for the next Perth Upmarket at UWA on 2 October, and had no time to photograph them or write blogs.

However, I can now show the first three which are silk scarves made from hand-dyed silk yarns.

The first is dyed sun orchid with the warp from the first pot and the weft from the second pot (and hence the weft is a lighter shade). The scarf is 1920mm x 205mm and weighs 100g.

The second is dusk coloured and dyed in the same pot. The lighter colour of the weft is due to the fact that it is a shiny yarn. The scarf is 1910mm x 210mm and weighs 102g.

The third is peppercorn coloured using the two pot method(and hence the light and dark - the weft is not really white). The scarf is 1910mm x 205mm and weighs 106g.

All three scarves, and others, will be on my stall on Sunday.
