We carry cotton and hemp yarns and kits from Lunatic Fringe. I use the yarns for my own weaving and sell them here at the farm shop. That makes it too difficult to keep on-line listings current. Please contact me to find out what yarns are currently available and visit the shop to purchase yarns.
Popping Purple Scarves Kit
Popping Purple Scarves Kit
Make two scarves, one for you, and one for a friend. All the mercerized yarn and instructions to make two scarves that shift through 6 purplish yarns. The finished size of each scarf is approximately 8” x 60” plus 4” fringe on either end. The texture of the scarves is made by using a 3-shaft pattern (with the use of a pickup stick if you have a rigid heddle loom), and the scarves are very soft and supple.
The kit comes with all the yarn you will need to weave the 2 scarves and instructions for weaving the scarves on either a Rigid Heddle Loom or a 4-shaft loom. If you weave the scarves on a 4 shaft loom, you will warp the loom only once, and if you weave on a rigid heddle loom, you will warp the loom twice.
