SPRING WEAVING

I've been getting back to the looms as the garden is drying out from all the sun and lack of rain.  So trying to get blogging caught up as well. 

Early this Spring, I finally made a scarf for my college roommate that I've promised for a couple years.  For warp, I chose some 8/2 tencel in colorway 'Thailand' from my favorite dyer, Tammy at YarntopiaTreasures in New Mexico.  This was wound on the warping board to preserve the color blocks and to get a length that would work for a cowl and a scarf.  For weft I used a plain greyed teal for the cowl and dark teal for the scarf. 
Interestingly I liked the dark teal better while weaving, but after finishing, I preferred the grey teal. 
It is an 8 shaft pattern done on my Schacht Mighty Wolf. the pattern is from Rebecca Kaye, a weaver on facebook.

I CHANGED THIS ONE TO A COWL 
so it no longer has the bright yellow fringes.

IT IS BEST TO VIEW THIS BLOG AS A WEB PAGE

View this blog as a WEB PAGE in order to see all the categories.

The web page view is divided by the following subjects:
GARDENING, WEAVING, and FAMILY. 

There are sub-headings of scarf, hat, or plant inventory and a separate heading for Multiple Myeloma.  

I write this blog on a desktop while agonizing over the format -- only to find that it comes out looking in a completely different way on a phone. 
There it just shows posts in decending chronological order.
