A Pop of Bloom Scarf

Weave a scarf with Supplementary Warp and Weft!

There are many ways to add supplemental warp and weft to plain weave using finger-controlled techniques, pick-up sticks, and warp additions.

Supplemental techniques rely on a base warp and weft to create a stable fabric, allowing for extra yarns (the supplements) to be added to the warp or the weft.

This project is simply an introduction to two of these techniques using Bamboo Pop as the base and Bamboo Bloom Handpaints as the textured Supplementary Warp and Weft.

Zoom Class with Michele Marshall

We are excited to announce a Zoom Class with Michele Marshall for this Supplementary Warp and Weft weaving project! 

This supplemental weft/warp class will take you through a few of the many techniques that use fibers, fabric, beads, or other add-ins in addition to plain weave fabric to highlight those special items in your stash.  The class will cover the techniques in the "Pop of Bloom" scarf, as well as others, to give you options for adding something new to your plain weave projects. 

Class date: Saturday, July 27th 4:00 Eastern (EPT).
