I have a 24-inch Kromski rigid-heddle loom. A friend gave me a sheep's fleece, so I cleaned and washed some of it and spun one skein of walnut colored woolen yarn (that I dyed with black walnut leaves) and one skein of white.. Here is the walnut colored yarn drying.
I decided to weave a scarf on my little loom. I learned some things, and will do better next time, but I am very pleased with the hounds tooth pattern. :)
Isn't that pretty? It is for a birthday gift.
Wow, I'm impressed by your skills. The colors of the yarn are beautiful and the weaving looks so even and smooth!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Kirsti.
DeleteIt's really beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy you like it. Thank you!
DeleteI'm impressed! I did some weaving and spinning at school (over thirtyfive years ago....) and I remember I liked it. That's something to put on my crafts-to-do-list!
ReplyDeleteI hope you will find your way back there again! How nice that you could learn it at school. Now we have YouTube! :)
