Leftovers of Noro Kureopatora yarns with alpaca

 Do you like leftovers?

From my scraps of Noro Kureopatora, great things grow.

Hand-woven on an ocean blue coloured 100% Australian alpaca from Tailored Strands these 100% Australian wool Noro Kureopatora  yarns have produced an interesting coloured and patterned scarf.  Being 1630mm x 200mm and weighing 137g does it fit your size.  Of course it does, how big do you want it?

See it at Aspects of Kings Park or The Artisan Store Fremantle depending upon stock movement.

Noro Kureopatora last balls of yarn

 The end of an era. I have just hand-woven the last two balls that I have of Noro Kureopatora 100% Australian wool.  Noro Blossom, Noro Mossa, and now Noro Kureopatora no longer available.

The variable colours in the yarn give rise to the strippedf bands of colours for which Noro are renowned for.  I weave the 100% banded colours on a warp of 100% Australian alpaca from Tailored Strands.  This time the theme is blue, using the ocean blue coloured alpaca yarn.  Colourful, soft feeling and sure to keep you warm and for the record they are nominally 1800mm x 200mm and weigh 150g.

See them soon at Aspects of Kings Park or The Artisan Store Fremantle depending upon stock movement.

Hand-woven stripped alpaca scarves

 Continuing my series of longitudinal stripped scarves I have used stripes of emerald green, mocha brown, lavender and wisteria tied together with a champagne coloured yarn: All 100% Australian alpaca yarns from Tailored Strands.

Colourful, soft feeling and two patterns to choose from.  Are you spoilt for choice?
