Each scarf is a one-off, I add different colours as I weave — these unique pieces are on sale at The Hub, Sleaford (National Centre for Crafts and Design) and Rock/Paper/Scissors, Canterbury. I hope someone will receive these and really love them, made to love and last ..!

Finally finished and folded and sent off to Shops

Finally finished and folded and sent off to Shops in time for the cooler months - seaweed and silk and lyocell (‘Seacell’) combined with super soft merino, recycled wool from garments, and British lambswool … Combination scarves to help out the chill. Not on the website but if they sell well I’ll make some more - watch this space.
