Several scarves (seasonal gifts)

I have been spinning and knitting again, to make a few gifts for the festive season!


Scarf 1 - natural tussah silk, and some fibre made from seaweed, that I dyed green as I thought it would be fun if it looked more seaweedy!













Scarf 2 - came about because I wanted to practise spinning cotton. Finally got the hang of it (though you can barely see it...) three plies, in silk, cotton, and some left over lilac/yellow natural-dyed alpaca/silk (I think..) that I have leftovers of. The middle section is in silk only, where I ran out of the other fibres









Thanks for looking (and thanks as ever to the Princess for being an excellent model!)

The fringe on the end of the seaweed scarf looks very seaweedy! Perfect!
