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
