New scarves at The Jam Factory
Mustard / Dusty Pink Vintage weave!I had a request to make a couple more of these for The Jam Factory, and I had forgotten how much I love this weave structure!For the weaving nerds out there, it’s a 4 shaft M & W draft. It’s strange how light the mustard looks against the oatmeal and dusty pink warp - it looks much darker against my usual black warp ;)Head over to the Jam Factory in the city if you want one … saying that, I think I’ll need to make more in this design again!
Fleurieu Arthouse restocked!
Have you visited Fleurieu Arthouse?I have just delivered some Liquorice Allsorts scarves (though I have been informed one has sold already), so if you are wine tasting in McLaren Vale, make sure you pop in and have a look!I will be restocking these scarves on the shop, but for the moment, Fleurieu Arthouse are the only ones who have some, so be quick!They are on the Main Road (opposite Oscars), and are open from Thursday - Monday, 11am - 4pm
Weaving more Liquorice Allsorts scarves!
And we’re away!You saw the loom setup, next is the actual weaving process …I’m making a warp full of Liquorice Allsorts scarves, so it’s a lot of fun changing colours every now and then, and making colour decisions as I go. It’s a very ‘free and easy’ way to weave, and I’m loving it :DEvery Liquorice Allsort is one-of-a-kind, so you will never have the same one as anyone else!These are going to Fleurieu Arthouse, but I have created a ‘Made to Order’ listing, as I have had a few queries about this one … and they sold out pretty...
Dressing the loom ...
‘Dressing the loom’ before I can even start weaving!What does that mean? Well, it’s just putting the warp onto the loom.And when I say ‘putting’, I mean:- sleying the reed- threading the heddles- winding the warp onto the back beam- tying the front of the warp onto the front beam- tying up the treadlesAnd then away we go!
What I do for fun!
I was asked last week what I did for fun …And this was my answer :DYeah, if I had my own way, I would be handweaving and tapestry weaving 24 hours a day!!How about you - what is your idea of FUN? Comment below!
