Weaving on



LOVING the colors of my newest scarf! This is only my third woven item and I'm ok with saying that I'm proud of myself! :)   After being shown by my friend how to weave on a loom and researching, reading tutorials and blogs, watching videos, etc, I wasn't sure if I could handle the complexities of weaving. But taking some step by step directions really helped me-- breaking it down into smaller parts and taking my time really made it seem doable.

I worked out some loom tension issues after my second weaving and this third one came out straight-- hooray!  And this is so darn soft!!!

Warp: 5/2 Egyptian Cotton- Chestnut Rose
Weft: Bulky Cotton Boucle- Moccasin & Light Worsted Cotton Boucle- Egypt-- all yarn from Yarntopia Treasures

90 threads, 10epi, multi-patterns

Made this one for myself and now I'm going to work on some to list in my Etsy shop.
