Festive Red Scarf

Vila Cox, Handweavers Guild of Boise Valley, Boise, ID

Winner: Complex Weavers Award

Materials & Technique: Advancing Twill pattern created by Vila Cox using Fiberworks weaving software. 
Warp – 10/2 cotton
Weft – 20/2 cotton

36 shaft pattern with shafts 37 & 38 used to mimic floating selvages Woven on a 40S AVL loom

Description: I developed this stripe sequence for scarves and have woven several batches. Each time using different colors in the warp. This is the red version. The dark stripes are identical throughout the scarf, but each red stripe has a different twill pattern. Many people will never notice the different patterns, but it makes me happy as a structure/pattern weaver to design them and watch them grow as I weave.
