WEAVING PICTURES CATCH UP FALL 2018

double infinity cowl Strickler # 220
IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME NOT POSTING ON THIS BLOG.

But here is a start anyway. 

This wonderful yarn was dyed in colorway "Santa Fe" by Yarntopia Treasures in 4/2 Tencel Lyocel.  When I posted pictures of the yarn on Facebook, a scarf was claimed even before it was made.



 I only had two skeins of that colorway and thought a similar one would work with it  but changed my mind and ordered a third.  This allowed me to get two scarves a small single infinity scarf and a double infinity cowl from 3 skeins on one warp. An individual skein would not make a nice size scarf if I laid out the colors to pool the way I wanted on the warping board.
