Saturday Handweavers Guild

Both scarves are 8 shaft deflected double weave mosaic drafts from Madelyn van der hoogt’s Deflected Double Weave DVD. I dyed the 20/2 silk for each scarf with three colors which merged into a dominant color. The green scarf was dyed turquoise, navy and bright green and the magenta scarf was magenta, purple and orange. You can see the other colors if you look closely. The green scarf alternates green and black silk so there is no shrinkage and results in a flat fabric. The magenta scarf alternates the silk with black merino wool. When washed and fulled it creates a collapse fabric.
