    How to Weave a Scarf from

    Seven Handwoven Scarves

    In my shop, I always have a loom warped and ready so

    my customers can sit down and weave. I also have an

    entire room devoted to sock yarns! Needless to say,sock yarns oten make their way onto the shop looms.

    Most sock yarns are treated so they wont ull or shrink.

    Tey are, however, designed to retain the bers lot. Tis

    means that you need to allow or a generous amount o

    take-up. You will also want to be careul when you wind the

    warp that you dont apply too much tension and inadvertently

    wind a shorter warp than you intended.

    Oten blended with nylon to increase strength, sock

    yarns are made to endure the abuse that a garment

    designed or the oot receives. Tereore, standing up to

    the wear o the heddles and reed, or in my case a rigid

    heddle, is no problem or them!

    How to Weave a Scarf from

    Seven Handwoven Scarves

    On the way to this scar, I learned something new about

    shrinking/ulling abrics. Te wool-and-cotton scarves Id

    woven many times tended to shrink more in the wetdirection than in the warp direction. I wanted to determine exactly

    how much that might happen with this scar, so (never my avorite

    plan) I decided it was important to sample. I wove and nished a

    short sample; see Photo a.

    Concluding that this time or some reason (it might have been wise to

    think about the some reason a little more) these materials had the

    opposite eect, I wove a rst scar so that the design squares were

    taller than they were wide; see Photo b at let and Photo d, page 8. An

    unwelcome surprise was that washing and ulling this scar urther

    elongated the squares and circles; see Photo c!

    A new conclusion! Fabrics have a tendency to shrink more in the

    direction o their smaller measurement. My original sample was shorterthan it was wide; a scar is a lot longer than it is wide. aking this

    principle into account or the project scar on page 6, I wove the design

    squares shorter than wide; see Photo e, page 8. Te pued circles are

    close to round, and the design squares are square in the nal scar.

    How to Weave a Scarf from

    Seven Handwoven Scarves

    B

    asketweave is like plain weave except that two

    threads work together in both warp and wet. You

    can go arther! Te ner the yarn, the more ends youcan put in one slot or hole o a rigid heddle.

    Weaving the ScarvesWind the warp and dress the loom ollowing the directions on

    this page or the white scar or page 11 or the purple scar.

    o wind a shuttle with 2 threads, use a ball winder to

    make a 212ounce center-pull ball. Use both ends rom the

    ball as 1 (1 rom the center, 1 rom the outside) to wind

    doubled strands o wet on a stick shuttle. I you are using

    tripled ends, wind rom two balls and use 1 end rom one

    ball and 2 ends rom the other.It is important that the ends are pulled onto the shuttle

    under similar tension. For instance, winding 1 end rom a

    skein on a swit and 1 rom a center-pull ball will cause the

    yarns to unwind rom the shuttle unevenly.

    Weave a ew inches with scrap yarn to spread the warp.

    Weave a ew picks with the white or purple wet leaving a

    1 yd tail. Hemstitch using the tail, including 2 picks and 2

    warp threads in each stitch. Continue weaving or 85.

    Finish with hemstitching as at the beginning.

    FinishingRemove the scar rom the loom by untying the warp romthe back and ront apron rods. (Leaving the warp ringe long

    will help keep it rom raying and makes trimming the

    nished ringe easier to do.) Remove scrap yarn. Wash by

    hand or machine, gentle cycle, with delicate soap. Straighten

    the ringe and hang the scar to dry.

    Using a rotary cutter, trim the ringe to 34" . he ends

    will naturally twist together in the direction in which thesingles yarn was spun, creating the appearance o a twisted

    ringe.

    TIP:o wind doubled threads, pull both ends rom a center-pull ball, one orm the outside, one rom the inside.

    Good to know: Some wools eel rough to the touch. Tis can be due to the spinning oilsused during the manuacturing process or the sizing used to protect the yarns on the cone.Once the yarn is washed, many seemingly scratchy yarns will soten and bloom.

    How to Weave a Scarf from

    Seven Handwoven Scarves

    Felted Lace ScarIn Superfne Merinoby Madelyn van der Hoogt

    This scarf is pure fun! Its quick-and-easy plain weave with only one shuttleand every other inch in both the warp

    and the weft is an empty space. During wet finishing, the soft, loosely woven merino wool fulls to a felted texture,

    producing two independent but interlocking woven grids of small plain-weave sections. The raw edges can be

    trimmed as desired and still remain secure.

    How to Weave a Scarf from

    Seven Handwoven Scarves

    No yarn o my experience ulls as beautiully as Jag-

    gerSpuns Superine Merino. I use it in almost all

    handwovens that eature eects rom dierentialshrinkage between yarns, and it is especially ideal or hand-

    wovens in which a elted but supple and sot texture is re-

    quired. Tis scar is deliciously light and sot to the touch, yet

    the bers are elted enough that you can cut away any element

    you dont like without ear o raveling. I was strongly tempted

    to narrow the elted foat areas between plain-weave sections

    by just cutting them away!

    Te StructureAlthough the weave structure is identied as plain weave,

    it could be argued that it is actually a doubleweave.

    Essentially, groups o warp threads on shats 1 and 2

    alternate with groups o warp threads on shats 3 and 4

    (19 threads in each group). For 19 picks each, plain weave

    is woven rst in the groups threaded on shats 1 and 2 and

    then in the groups threaded on shats 3 and 4.

    Tese two plain-weave treadlings (separated by 1"

    spaces) alternate throughout. I you were to cut away the

    warp and wet threads rom either group, the others

    would remain as an independent abric with sections o

    plain weave separated by (very) long foats.

    Further ExplorationTis abric would make wonderul shawls and could also be

    used or vests or other decorative over-garments. Te scar

    uses only one color, but the two layers could contrast in hue

    and/or value or several colors in two contrasting colorways

    could be used. Because the edges o each section o plain weave

    are secure rom ulling, any abric woven in this technique can

    be shaped in interesting ways by trimming.

    How to Weave a Scarf from

    Seven Handwoven Scarves

    Warped and wisted Scarvesby Ramona Abernathy-Paine

    Leno

    (pronounced

    lee-no) is a

    lace weave

    created by

    twisting warpends around

    each other and

    holding the

    twist with a

    wet end. Tis

    interesting

    lace projectuses beads, but

    not the way

    you think.

    How to Weave a Scarf from

    Seven Handwoven Scarves

    Bead leno sounds like beads are

    woven into the lace abric. In

    reality, beads are used to helptwist warp threads to create the leno

    eect and are not woven into the

    abric. he outermost threads in

    each 4-thread group o warp ends

    are crossed under their adjacent

    ends and threaded through a bead in

    ront o the heddles but behind the

    reed. When either o the shats with

    a warp end that runs through the

    bead is raised, it pulls the other warp

    end under the two nonbeaded ends,

    twisting the warp group. he wetpick is then inserted to hold the

    twist in place.

    In standard leno, open areas appear

    against a ground cloth o plain weave.

    When weaving bead leno, the plain-weave background area is really a hal

    basketweave with single wet threads

    passing over and under doubled warp

    threads.

    A riend who saw my scar dubbed

    the structure warped and twisted.

    And so the scar is named.

    InspirationHand-dyed yarns rom Alpacas Pure

    and Simple just begged to be woven.

    Since I live in north Florida, where theweather is hot and humid ten months

    o the year, I knew the weave structure

    would have to be open to allow air to

    circulate around the wearer. So I began

    experimenting with bead leno to nd

    out how much yarn would be neededto weave a scar. One skein produced a

    scar too short or todays ashions,

    and two skeins o hand-dyed alpaca

    seemed like a big investment or one

    scar. Aha! wo scarves rom two

    skeins! Tis yarn is so easy to work

    with that I have taught this project to

    absolute beginning weaving students

    as well as to advanced weavers.
