Hand-woven Noro wool scarf

The yarn I have used in this scarf is a Noro yarn containing 90% wool and 10% nylon.  It is a fairly thick yarn, about 12 ply, so my 200g of yarn only enabled me to weave a scarf measuring 1400mm x 190mm and weighing 149g.  I was planning a longer scarf but the weft used more yarn than expected, so I finished short on the warp, hence the higher weight loss than normal.



The scarf will be on my stall at Perth Upmarket to be held this coming Sunday at UWA.
