Having used up almost all my leftover yarns as I hand-wove scarves for the homeless during the coronavirus lockdown I had to decide whether to buy more stock. Well I did! 10 different colours of Australian alpaca from Tailored Strands and 4 colours of Noro Kureopatora yarns. I now have to find the time to weave again.
So I have used some of the new Royal Blue alpaca yarn as the weft on an ocean/purple multi coloured warp of Bendigo Sock Yarn, 70% merino wool, 30% nylon. The two woven scarves in different patterns are soft feeling with an interesting variation in blue tones. Both are nominally 1700mm x 210mm and weigh 140g.
See them soon at Aspects of Kings Park or The Artisan Store Fremantle depending upon stock movement.
