Mohair and alpaca handwoven scarves

 Whilst "Op Shopping" in Wyalkatchem during a recent wildflower trip in the Central Wheatbelt I came across some bags of colourful mohair yarns.  They became my souvenir of my holiday!

Now I have two identical scarves from using  the lavender and grey Shepherd Ezotik yarn (77% mohair, 14% wool, 9% nylon) as the weft on a warp of lavender coloured 100% Australian alpaca from Tailored Strands.  They are fluffy, 1790mm x 200mm, and yet lightweight (96g) scarves.  Lovely to see and lovely to feel.

If they appeal see them soon at Aspects of Kings Park or The Artisan Store Fremantle.
