Black, white and colours handwoven scarves

You are weaving a black yarn on a white yarn, then you run out of black yarn.  What do you do?  Instead of waiting to buy more black yarn I continued weaving with a white yarn.  The result?  A scarf half black and white, and half all white, or perhaps 55/45 ratio.  Interesting and unusual, but at 1700mm x 190mm and weighing 166g this scarf will keep you warm this winter.
The second scarf uses my thick multi-coloured left-over yarns on an even thicker crimson coloured yarn.  A smaller scarf at 1650mm x 160mm and weighing 156g, but in an interesting pattern.  The Noro Mossa yarn gives some interesting textures and colours.  It is sure to please.
Again, both scarves will be given to the homeless unless  you wish to purchase for $50, or more, and I will donate the money instead to the homeless.
