October 2024 - Mutlicoloured merino lambswool twill
This month I started to weave a wide merino lambswool weave in bright colours. This fabric was made into snoods, hot water bottles covers and other gifting items. Visit my gifting page if you are looking for a unique luxury gift.​
September 2024 - Green, Sea Green, Emerald Green, Blue Green - all the greens deflected doubleweaving
This month I completed my collection of green merino lambswool scarves and snoods. All woven with a deflected doubleweave design.
​These scarves and snoods are available in my website shop.​
August 2024 - Turned Twill
​This month was a month of experimenting again with a turned 3/1 and 1/3 twill. I decided to weave in some Autumnal colours of plum pine and silver grey.
​These scarves and snoods are available in my website shop.​
July 2024 - Monks Belt Weaving
​This month was a month of finishing a 100% cotton weave in a monks belt design. The Monk's Belt design is a distinctive weaving pattern with bold geometric designs. I wrote a blog on this weaving project which gives a number of hints in the event that another weaver might also wish to weave this design. The blog can be found here.
These scarves and snoods are available in my website shop.​​​​
June 2024 - Weaving in Autumnal oranges with a deflected doubleweave design
​​Planning ahead to Autumn, for much of the month of June I was weaving an orange, coral and blue deflected doubleweave design. This colourway has previously been popular for both men and woman as both a scarf and cowl complimenting a blue or navy jacket or coat perfectly.
These scarves and snoods are available in my website shop.​​
May 2024 - Blue and white deflected doubleweave
Blue deflected doubleweave scarves are often enjoyed but this year I have decided to weave in some emerald green to the collection. Woven with fine merino lambswool these scarves and snoods make perfect luxury gifts.
These scarves and snoods are available in my website shop.
​I wrote a blog about this project if you are interested which can be found here.​​
April 2024 - Pink deflected doubleweave
In need of a special gift for a person who likes lambswool scarves and pink resulted in a month of pink, burgundy and white weaving. Creating this special collection was a joy because I love pink myself with each scarf and snood being slightly different with the use of a range of different pink shades for the weft.
These are two of the scarves and a few snoods available in my website shop.​​
March 2024 - Blue and Yellow Tartan
Continuing on from the Tartan weaving in February I wove a similar fabric in blue and yellow shades.
These scarves and a few snoods available in my website shop.​​​
February 2024 - Family Tartan as a special gift
A friend had a special birthday so I chose to weave her a shawl in her family Tartan. Woven in three bright colours and the classic 2/2 twill using fine merino lambswool.
​The gift was appreciated and a spare shawl was created which is available in my website shop.
​​I wrote a blog about this project if you are interested which can be found here.

January 2024 - Cotton weaving
The New year was welcomed in with the a cotton weave. Whilst most people prefer a merino lambswool scarf or snood I always like to have a stock of cotton snoods in my shop for those people who prefer not to have wool against their skin.​
Some of these snoods are available in my website shop.
