A new scarf is on the rigid heddle loom. This is a cotton boucle-like yarn that I bought last year while in a Cocoa Beach yarn shop. I had bought two balls so one is for the warp and the other is providing the weft. It is giving a slight plaid look to the scarf. I have to be careful because the cotton has a bit of something that is giving it stretch but it is a quick weave.

Spun and Warped
The Gator yarn is ready for knitting.....I have another hank of roving that I think just might want to match this; pull out the dyepot again!

I'm sure the scarf will have wonderful drape! The subtle plaid is very pretty.
ReplyDeleteDon't you love that plaidy look when you weave variegateds together? I love watching it shift around with plaid here, solid place ther and stripes in another place.
