Handwoven handdyed multicoloured woollen scarves

Summer is coming so I have two lightweight hand-woven, hand-dyed, multi-coloured woollen scarves for the season.  The warp in both is a thin (2-ply or thinner) woollen yarn hand-dyed in citrus, desert pea and wattle.

In the first I have used this same yarn as the weft so there is colour banding in both the length and width.  This scarf is 1700mm x 205mm and weighs 78g.
In the second scarf I have used a variable thickness woollen yarn hand-dyed in the second pot of the wattle dye.  The solid yellow weft helps to make the weaving pattern more visible.  This scarf is 1630mm x 220mm and weighs 87g.

Two fresh looking lightweight scarves which could be useful accessories for the summer.  They will be on sale at Aspects of Kings Park or The Artisan Store Fremantle depending upon stock movement.

Socks or scarves?

When on holiday in the UK during September I purchased a 100g ball of each of two multi-coloured 75% wool 25% nylon mixes.  These were Rico Superba Poems yarn sold to be knitted into socks!

Not being a knitter I have hand-woven two scarves using these yarns as the warp.
In the first one, the red and blue yarn and colour #5, I used a  hand-dyed multi-coloured silk yarn as the weft and the finished scarf is 1670mm x 165mm and weighs 87g.  In the second one, lots of different greens and colour #3, I used a thin synthetic mottled gold coloured yarn as the weft and the finished scarf is 1430mm x 175mm and weighs 69g.

Two eye-catching scarves which you can knit yourself matching socks.  See them at Aspects of Kings Park or The Artisan Store Fremantle depending upon stock movements.

Scarlet Tailored Strands alpaca scarves

I have finally finished my two scarlet coloured handwoven alpaca scarves using Tailored Strands 2-ply yarns.  Each are in a different pattern so you have a choice of these rich red, soft feeling, alpaca scarves. They are both nominally 1800mm x 225mm and weigh 130g.

They will be on sale at Aspects of Kings Park or The Artisan Store Fremantle depending upon stock movements.
