8 shaft Scarf weaving with Cotton Lyocell yarns
What better to show off the brilliance of Cotton-Lyocell yarns than a bright coloured Scarf?!
Kalyani Pramod came out with the vibrant colour palette and a nice 8-shaft twill pattern to make a 8” scarf.
Ashford Katie Folding Loom was fun to work with- Compact yet sturdy!
Warped up the 12” loom using Shuttles & Needles Cotton-Lyocell 6 ply yarns - Honey Suckle, Radiant Orchid, Lilac Chiffon, & Grapeade.
Then came the choice of weft colours: played around with different colours for weft including Navy Blue, Black, white, Honey suckle….. but at the end of the day, the Navy Blue won over!
Took off the loom, washed & finished. Washing brought out the softness of the Cotton-Lyocell yarns!
