Woven scarves

Teresa Dunne creates hand woven lambs wool scarves and cushions on a loom at her home in Cornwall UK

#myprojectposted I placed this project under "knitting" because there's no category for weaving on this website. What a bummer because weaving is a good use of beautiful yarn too, as evidenced by my scarf. I used Austermann Step (a sock yarn that I bought on this website) as warp and weft and did plain weave on a 12 dent heddle. I used 2 skeins. It turned out very soft and drapes nicely.

This scarf is a great weaving project where the yarn just shines. It’s simple enough for a beginner yet fun for more experienced weavers. The yarn practically does all the work. Pick two colors of Sesame, warp with one and weave with the other, and see the beautiful scarf emerge.

Take a look at the way yarn choice affects how twill looks on the rigid-heddle loom.

Weaving some jazz-inspired scarves in a natural colour palette.

I believe that everyone of us has “True Self”: the person we were created to be. When we discover who that is, and fully engage in it, we will thrive! For Allison, her caring nature led her to nursing, but as with many things, when we are stifled in one area, out whole self begins to suffer. I love how Allison’s nature shines as she continues to care for and nurture people (and herself!) in her fibre adventures.

Tencel is the perfect yarn for weaving soft and luxurious scarves. Strong, washable, and super soft, Tencel is an affordable alternative to silk and great for beginners and experienced weavers alike. I designed this fun weaving project using three cones of complementary colors of Tencel in the warp.
