Scarves

I'm weaving scarves for the craft sale. I'm using the same fibre as I used for my yardage, (50/50 wool/silk blend), but it's set slightly farther apart, so I don't have quite as many ends per inch. That's great, but is decided to make each scarf 72" long. So it's taken me longer than I anticipated. Dressing the loom was a breeze compared to the yardage, so that's a positive. Plus instead of doing a set of three, I'm doing four. Because why the hell not? After talking with a very interesting and inspiring lady, Christine (who has made a living weaving for 40 years) a few weeks ago, I decided to make my scarves into infinity scarves. Which means no fringe, but I will have to seam the ends together.

I think they will turn out great!
