Notes

My first rigid heddle weaving project! I used 2/14 for the warp and weft and added a few ends of the Kidsilk Night every few inches in the warp, I was going for a glittery pinstripe but it was such a close color match it faded right into the 2/14. Oh well!

I got the gauze-y crinkle scarf I wanted, I’m happy with my edges and my fringe. It’s super soft and drape-y and just as quick as everyone says it is. The time frame I’ve listed was interrupted with lots of knitting.
