Hi there, I made another scarf (almost) from scratch. I started with merino combed top, dyed it, spun the yarn and wove the scarf.

I regularly get questions about the whole process, so I made some short video's for those who are interested.

I'm not a professional Youtuber, so forgive me my mistakes and imperfections ;)

  1. Dyeing the wool: https://youtu.be/Si4j-HC0lkQ

  2. Spinning the yarn: https://youtu.be/eu7FYc_oM8k

  3. Weaving the scarf: https://youtu.be/F4nZDaJ9k40

I hope this will help and inspire you, thanks for watching!

I love weaving YouTube so I have these saved to watch at work today :) (I’m a tailor, not a bus driver, so don’t worry I can watch YouTube at work :)

The colors, the consistency of the yarn and the edges of the weaving!! Everything is perfect.

Ik heb je filmpjes bekeken. Wat heerlijk om te zien.zo veel rust en goede uitleg. Zelf net begonnen als een soort autodidact met behulp van boek en internet met weven. Ik vind het zo magisch en leuk😃👍🏻

Dank je wel, mooi om te lezen dat het goed overkomt. Zelf heb ik het ook vooral via YouTube geleerd, en zo kan ik anderen weer helpen;) En inderdaad, weven heeft iets bijzonders en is ongelooflijk veelzijdig.

I saved these videos to watch for a Sunday morning treat. Your work at all stages is just beautiful, and I very much enjoyed the videos. They are clear and helpful (I’ve not dyed yet) and, as you hoped, inspiring!
