luxury
last night was “tea and tell” night
good food, wonderful weaving
it was so much fun I forgot to take many pictures
four of us exchanged the group challenge
(free advertising for our favorite grocery store!)
months ago we each brought some really NICE yarn
exchanged it in the paper bags, choose what to weave
and exchanged the weaving, again in the paper bags
we all wove scarves, no surprise as the yarns were all silk or luxury yarns
Arlene drew my yarn (silk) and wove huck lace
Heather got the scarf
the texture and colours are beautiful (I didn’t get a close-up)
Heather wove a very simple silk and cashmere shawl which was as light as a feather
it proves you don’t need a complicated weave structure – absolutely gorgeous
Kathy was thrilled with it
Kathy wove an eight harness turned twill, in wonderful colour stripes
it’s mine
it’s soft and warm and the perfect colours
I got yarn from Arlene and she got the scarf back
the one on the right
we forgot to discuss a new challenge
maybe more people will be encouraged to participate
it is delightful to have another weaver’s scarf to wear and enjoy
What fun! A new twist on Secret Santa.
