I finished the scarf for my co-worker on Christmas Eve, took it off the loom, finished it, and took it to her the same day. She was very happy!
I ran out of the red Orlon three-quarters of the way through the second scarf, so I finished it with a linen that I happened to have
of the exact same shade!
I was worried about shrinkage differences with the two different materials, but it doesn't seem to have mattered. This was hand washed and hung to dry and didn't seem to shrink at all.
And I still had three feet of warp on the loom.
I really suck at math.
I continued to weave and now have a table runner to sell on Etsy!

Too bad I didn't have this done
before Christmas, someone would have loved to use this to decorate! I just hope that is not ALL they think of when they see these colors.
NEXT!
Coming soon to the loom in my living room: random-color waffle weave cotton towels, because the other ones I made sold out.
