Hand-woven scarves from Noro Mossa #1 and Tailored Strands wisteria alpaca

A little bit of Japanese, a little bit of Australian.  Actually I don't speak any of either but at least I can weave their yarns.  This time I have used Noro Mossa #1 yarn (52% wool, 16% viscose, 11% mohair, 11% silk, 10% nylon) as the weft on a Tailored Strands 100% Australian alpaca warp coloured wisteria.  Maybe winter colours but these bulky textured yarns will feel snug and warm.
The scarves are nominally 1860mm x 205mm and weigh 167g, and you have the choice of two patterns.  See them soon at Aspects of Kings Park (one already in store) or The Artisan Store Fremantle, depending upon stock movements.
