Rose Garden Prayer Shawl

Handmade Design by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, Al

This is a prayer shawl that I made for my dear friend, Lisa.. she touches my life all the time... and is special to my heart. I wanted to show her how much I appreciate her.  I tried a prayer shawl pattern.. it was really pretty but not as soft and as airy as I wanted... So I created this pattern on my own.. I used the DaLooms Prayer Shawl Loom... using every other pet to creat the more open, larger stitches.  Thank you so much for looking!!  Hugs, Jeannie

I am beyond excited about this scarf!!.. I love the yarn... it has some mohair twisted in with it..and a little sparkle...just enough.. it just wove up so pretty!.. the mohair made it a little tricky to weave... but well worth the effort.  I love, love my weaving looms.  There is lots of pictures..I have some pictures in progress.. Thank you so much for looking!! Hugs, Jeannie

This is some more of the wonderful yarn I got for Mother's Day at Yarniverse in Memphis.. before I said Yarnation..but I was wrong... it is Yarniverse... I love this yarn it is  Trendsetter Yarns Dune yarn...and I used my new DaLooms Prayer Shawl Loom...now to make a prayer shawl on it. It made a wonderful mid length Infinity Scarf.   These new yarns I have been working with have truly made me a "Yarn Snob"... they just make me happy! Thank you for looking!  Hugs Jeannie

The Winter Sea ~ Handwoven Scarf

Handmade Design by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, Al

I was surprised with a trip to Yarnation...and two story yarn store in Memphis...by sweet daughter, Madison and my son-in-law, Cory took me there for Mother's Day...and Robby added to my wonderful gift certificate... I got to really splurge on some beautiful... the yarn I chose to use on my 3ft tri loom is a beautiful Tahki Yarns Angel yarn...it is a core spun yarn and Cory said it reminded him of the ocean... it does look like the ocean or the sea... I did a new first for me...I made twisted fringe... So you can fully appreciate the fringe I will explain...you take two strand... twist each strand to the right the same number of times... I rolled each in my fingers 6 rolls...then you take the two strands together and roll them the same number of times the other way ...then tie a knot...I love the look...but the fringe alone took me about 6 hours. This is my favorite yarn creation so far!!...love it when I get to say that, it means I am learning!!  Thank you so much for looking!  Hugs, Jeannie

Thick and Thin Whimsical Scarf

Handmade Design by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, Al

I saw a scarf like this in an older Spin Off magazine and feel in love... I tried using needles to accomplish this since that is what the author of the article did...but I had no luck with needles.. So I got out my trusty Knifty Knitter...the Adult Hat one.. it's the purple one that comes in a single pack... and I went to work recreating the design on my loom... I loved the look of this.. I had to tie up the ends I just could not figure out another way to bind off the ends that looked pretty... Thank you so much for looking!!  Hugs Jeannie

Masculine Scarf

Handmade Design by

Jeannie Phillips ~ Southside, Al

I made this on my 6 ft rectangle weaving loom.. it is just over 6 inches wide... It is made to weave diagonally but I wanted to try something a little different with my left over yarns... I used a chunky yarn and a lace weight yarn... My husband really loved how it turned out.. I like it lots... but I like making more feminine things best.  It was fun to try something new... thank you for looking!..Hugs Jeannie

Here are a few things that I have been working on... I have had several things going on at once and got a couple of them finished.... Will tell you a little about each one.

This yarn in this tri loom scarf inspired me to get some things finished so I could play with my new yarn. My daughter, Madison and my son-in-law, Cory took me to this amazing yarn store, Yarnation in Memphis when we visited for Mother's day. They had me a gift certificate so I got to splurge on some amazing yarn.. this is my first creation...and I have some of this yarn left over!!... so excited at how this turned out! I did a first on this one... I made twisted fringe... I love how it looks..but boy on boy it takes a while.. the fringe itself took about 5 hours... .Hugs Jeannie

I saw a scarf like this in a spinning magazine...I actually tired to do it on needles... but I had to go back to my wonderful looms... love my looms...I did this one on one of my KK... I love the look of the thin and thick yarn... I was really proud that I could accomplish this look... I am learning all the time... I love learning new things.

I did this on my rectangle weaving loom... inspired by the scarf above to try the thick and thin yarn in a different way.  Instead of weaving diagonally I tried running the thick yarn horizontally and the thin yarn vertically. It was great to use left over yarns in a new and creative way. My husband really loves this scarf... it is a good and different masculine scarf. Thank you so much for looking!  Hugs Jeannie
