NEW BROWN WARP









Brown - white - gray - orange and yellow
This warp contains a lot of alpaca, wool, silk, and linen. Soft!
Need my dustmask more and more...
But that doesn't spoil the fun :-)

ALPACA


Finally I'm going to use my mahogany-handspun alpaca.
Bought this beautiful yarn on Etsy, at the Frolic 'n Fibers Shop.
I like the medium to bulky, thick/thin handspun look.
...And so soft... 
Thank you, Chad the Alpaca :-)

Scarf 36 is my favourite...
It makes me think of Victor Vasarely :-)
Weaving the scarf in two parts is time-consuming,
but I like breaking up the "scarf conventions" :-)

measurements: 29 cm x 200 cm
Materials: alpaca, wool, silk, linnen,  polyster, rubber, acryl, cotton, microfiber

MOROCCO - part two





Berber weaving in the valley of Ait Bouli.
She set up her loom especially for us...
And made a delicious tagine also :-)
The wool she uses is naturally dyed.
