Rowan Summerspun yarn

Another type of yarn I purchased on my recent travels through the UK was Rowan Summerspun yarns #SH121 and SH117. These yarns are 50% wool/50% cotton. I have used two slightly different patterns in hand-weaving two scarves from these two yarns.
The first scarf is using the SH121 yarn and is 1640mm x 160mm and weighs 172g.
The second scarf using the SH117 yarn is 1630mm x 160mm and weighs 168g.
The two scarves are slightly smaller than my normal scarves due to the thicker yarns not going so far, but they both have an interesting array of colours.
See them on my stall at the Perth Upmarket at UWA on 23 September.
