Hand Woven Scarf

This is my latest creation.

A Hand Woven Scarf done on my old/new weaving loom I recently purchased.
What a relaxing craft weaving is. I had a small loom when I was young and it bought the memories back of weaving and creating when I was as young as 7-8 years old.

I used acrylic wool for the whole scarf. I picked up two balls of the bobble wool from Spotlight for $1 each and I thought that this would be a great first attempt after all these years.

Making this was quicker than knitting.. I didnt realise how quick weaving grows.

I made the flowers out of a gorgeous hand dyed yarn I have been using recently for a new quilt I am making. I just am in love with the colours.

This scarf is for my little girl .. she is loving it. She is a pink, purple girl... just right for her.

Now Im dreaming up what I'll make next on the loom.

Also, I have a tutorial neally ready to go... its all written up I just have to take the photos..

Happy Valentines Day
