The second is using a natural white yarn which has been hand-dyed with colour Sky in the Landscape range of colours. However, the final colour is much lighter than expected (caused by my error), but still a desirable shade of blue. It is in a slightly thicker yarn but still has that lovely feel of alpaca, and of course, is in a unique colour. The true colour is more like that shown in the photos of the whole scarf rather than the close-up. For the record it is 1700mm x 200mm and weighs 187g.

Two hand-woven alpaca scarves
As a bit of a clear-out I have used my remaining stock of WA alpaca yarns to hand weave two scarves. Both yarns are from Shamwani Alpaca Stud. The first is using a natural light brown alpaca yarn. This beautiful soft yarn makes an elegant looking patterned scarf suitable for man or woman. It is 1800mm x 200mm, excluding fringes, and weighs 166g.
The second is using a natural white yarn which has been hand-dyed with colour Sky in the Landscape range of colours. However, the final colour is much lighter than expected (caused by my error), but still a desirable shade of blue. It is in a slightly thicker yarn but still has that lovely feel of alpaca, and of course, is in a unique colour. The true colour is more like that shown in the photos of the whole scarf rather than the close-up. For the record it is 1700mm x 200mm and weighs 187g.
