Weaving - Scarf


Well I have finished my first weaving project on the Leena Loom. I am really pleased with it although there is some unevenness in places. I found weaving on a four shaft loom is faster and more comfortable (this does not apply to warping) than weaving on a rigid heddle but I am sure I will still get lots of use out of the rigid heddle.
My daughter in law bought me the wool I used for the weft for Mothers' Day and I think it has made a really interesting scarf. I used 4 ply bamboo for the warp.
I know the photograph is a bit odd with a scarf draped over a chair but the scarf is very long and I wanted to show it off : )
