I have a lot of fun using different techniques to create lines and shapes in these soft, silky scarves. All of my weavings are one-of-a-kind, but these especially are unique: I use finger-controlled lace weave techniques to create visual and tactile texture by hand.
Two color combination options: Spumoni (right) and Rose Bouquet (left).
You can find ‘Rose Bouquet’ for sale at The Roaming Root Cellar in Fairbanks, Alaska.
Suggested use: Drape over your shoulders and around your neck for soft, beautiful warmth and inviting visual texture.
Materials: Sero silk noil in Winterberry, Natural, and Boulder [for Rose Bouquet] and in Aloe, Lychee, and Dragonfruit [for Spumoni] (woven March 2024-present)
Dimensions: Width: 9″ (22.75 cm); Length: 71-73″ (180.3-185.5 cm)
Care: Hand wash in cool water with a gentle soap. (Should not be machine washed, even if in a mesh bag.) Lay flat to dry. When dry, press with a worm iron if needed.
Handwoven on: 12” rigid heddle loom with a 7.5-dent reed
Special weaving technique: Plain weave, and the finger-controlled lace weaves “Brooks Bouquet”, “Danish Medallion”, and (in some scarves) “Spanish Lace”, from Else Regensteiner’s The Art of Weaving (first printing, 1970).
Finishing touches: Hemstitched, regular or twisted fringe, and a metal ‘handmade’ charm
[Silk can be ‘magnetic’ in dry climates. If static electricity overwhelms your scarf, simply mist it gently with clean water.]
Each Interlace item is individually woven and one-of-a kind, and each item’s personality will naturally change over time through loving use and laundering.
