Creation:
The fabric for this shawl was woven on a Louet floor loom using an 8 shaft deflected doubleweave design creating a reversible pattern with each side of the shawl looking distinctively different. The yarn used was merino lambswool in burgundy, white, pink and brown which is woven in the spinning oils. Once woven the fabric is washed to remove the spinning oils causing the fabric to full and soften. Depending on whether the area of fabric has a tabby design or has longer warp or weft floats differential shrinkage occurs leading to the softening of the edges of the pattern.
