Pattern · Little Looms

Late-summer Colorado skies streaked with clouds inspired this honeycomb scarf with its curving blue lines on a white background. To create contrast between the cells and the outlines, Anu used a thick blue yarn that she doubled in the weft and used single in the warp.

Madeira Spring Scarf

Use clasped warp and weft to capture the essence of the quietly colorful landscape of balmy Madeira Island. Anu combined solid-colored and variegated Tencel in her warp and weft to create a soft and drapey scarf with two distinctly colored sides.
