This pure wool scarf was woven on a painted warp, with a mix of commercially dyed and home dyed yarns used in the weft to shade the colours.

I made two scarves on the one warp of fine rayon, set at 60epi. the warp alternated royal blue and jade green threads; for this scarf, I used the jade green for the weft, and for the next one I used the royal blue. The weave structure is blocks of 4-shaft huck lace.

Silk scarf woven in plain weave with a monk’s belt inlay – I dyed the silk, and used strands of embroidery cotton for the inlay.

I spun the yarn for this scarf, and another guild member knitted it. The scarf was made for a guild raffle a few years ago.
