Mango and salmon coloured handwoven scarves

Would you like ice-cream with that madame?  How many times have you been asked with all those desserts you have consumed over Christmas?  Well, I don't serve ice-cream with everything but I do tend to add alpaca to all my scarves!
This time a Noro Silk Garden Solo sock yarn, salmon coloured, and 40% wool, 25% silk, 25% polyamide, 10% mohair, has been hand-woven on a warp of mango coloured 100% Australian alpaca  yarn from Tailored Strands.  An interesting colour combination, even if not a culinary delight, but the swirls in the patterns reflects the salmon swimming in those raging rivers as they go upstream to spawn.  The bright mango colour makes these scarves warm looking and eye catching so brightening up your day.  Both scarves are nominally 1830mm x 200mm and weigh 142g.
See them soon at Aspects of Kings Park or The Artisan Store Fremantle.
