Once the plan was made: Sydney was off to the warping peg. Here is the draft that we created to go with this scarf. ![]() We started with the Warp Floats in groups of 3 pattern out of Jane Patrick’s book: The Weaver’s Idea Book: Creative Cloth on a Rigid Heddle Loom. It saves all kinds of trouble with calculating ends and planning how the repeats are going to be arranged with the colors. We have Weaveit Pro on our shop computers, and it is so much fun to play with colors and the pattern before you actually get to the loom. Draft for Sydney ScarfĪfter picking the colors we introduced Sydney to the magic of weaving software. She used one 50 g skein each of the colors. Sydney picked 3 colors of wool (Starry Sky, Dark Lilac and Pebble)…this was no easy task with all the colors that are available! Starry Sky and Dark Lilac would be the main colors (replace the yellow and black in the “Inspiration Scarf”) and Pebble would be the accent color (to replace the white in the “Inspiration scarf”). ![]() In the “Inspiration Scarf” the simplicity of the three colors, with yellow and black as the two main colors and one accent color makes it an attractive and timeless scarf, and we thought it would work well on the Cricket Loom. We found a scarf that we liked, and called it “Inspiration Scarf”. We found a pattern for a scarf by browsing through Pintrest and Google images. Happily, Sydney had just finished with the Seashore version of the Seaside towels on a Cricket loom, and was ready to do some colorful weaving. ![]() The race to the loom was on! Cowl made from Greenline Wool All of us around the Lunatic world were brimming with ideas of what to do with this lovely yarn and what colors we would we weave first. We received a big box of Jaggerspun, Organic Green Line yarn on luscious 50 g skeins a couple weeks ago.
