Finished: Alpaca Shawl
All done! This shawl is really light and warm. It measures about 17.5″x63″. I twisted the fringes with my new Leclerc gadget.

Inlay
This rustic Christmas tree looks nice both inside and outside the house on a wintry day. I wove it on the Glimakra Emilia loom using mostly cotton carpet warp. I used an inlay technique to create the tree. If I feel inspired, I may weave a few decorations, but I think I like it best as is.
Merry Christmas!
Alpaca Shawl
After a few stumbles, I warped up the Emilia with lavender alpaca and began weaving a shawl.
Electric Warp
The dry, winter air caused this acrylic warp to electrify with static. It was a pretty funny sight, but it eventually calmed down. I’m starting a two heddle, double weave project: a shuttle holder. I found it on the Ashford site.
