Shawls in Fall Colors

We have been weaving our shawls in new colors. This one, in a rich pumpkin and jade color, is great for fall. Is hand loomed in the pattern we call “Delfina’s Design.” To finish it we have braided the fringe in double knots. The shawls are 100% cotton and amazingly warm – perfect for a chilly fall day. It looks great as a scarf we think – don’t you?

To share a bit of “behind the scenes” with you -- we take turns weaving on each loom. That way we can balance challenging days with easy days. If you are a weaver you know that weaving using the four pedals requires a bit more concentration than weaving with two pedals. And, because sometimes our backs get tired, we take a break from weaving and hand embroider one of our other products. The seamstresses set aside enough embroidery work for us to be able to take breaks each day.

Have a good day!
