First Time Weaving with my Handspun Yarn!

Hello friends! After 18 months of spinning and a whopping three trial projects on my vintage rigid heddle loom, it is time to put my skills to the test and weave myself a scarf with my handspun yarn. All the other weaving projects I had thus far attempted were all made with acrylic yarn, and I am a selfproclaimed wool snob, so that didn't quite fit.
So join me on this cosy weaving trip! Eventhough it is still warm enough to weave this entire thing outside, we'll prepare ourselves for the coming winter. All the yarn I'm using is naturally dyed, yes, the warp as well!
I'm trying to mimick a bit of a plaid scarf, but also incorporate some fun elements like clasped weft weaving and some stripes. A burberry scarf from Aldi!

Beautiful scarf! Love seeing your weaving project. I am more of a spinster but I do dabble in weaving. I'm part of a weaver's guild, half of our guild is weavers and half are spinsters. Your fibre shenanigans and chaos approach wonderful!

[@kirstyhill1248]

Love the fact you are so up for trying new stuff! Beautiful scarf, it will go with anything and everything 😍❤️

[@MijnWolden]

How can you learn if you don't try new stuff every now and then? 😁

[@coffeewithroomforcream]

The burberry scarf from aldi made me snort. Your scarf is way better than any boring burberry!

I have an old Union Loom. I started out with an 18 inch warp, 10 ends per inch(epi), 7 1/2 yards. I edge sewed the resulting material together to get a 35 inch width. Milling and dyeing have given me a 32 inch material. The next time I increased to 12 epi on the warp and this reduced shrinkage by half. There is always shrinkage with wool and cotton yarn.

[@MijnWolden]

That's advanced weaver's speak I have yet to learn how to decipher 😅

[@Kenji1234Animelover]

The colors really are perfect together. 💕

[@MijnWolden]

Thank you 🥰

[@raevynwoods9403]

What a cool scarf! When you did the reveal shots, I felt like you were trying to be very serious, but your inner chaos demon was waiting to get out and do a funny dance :P

[@MijnWolden]

Busted 😅 Thank you 🥰

[@OrcaFPV]

I like your dancing and singing performance... next time with real sound please! oh yes and the scarf looks good, too 👍

[@MijnWolden]

Don't want trouble with the KZbin police for using copyrighted music, and my microphone died 😅

[@MijnWolden]

Hi Jen, hope you are going great! Thank you once again for your lovely comment and support 🥰 take Care!

[@linr8260]

Omg love these autumn colours. The brownish orange you have on that clasped weft near the end especially just Hits Different. Congrats!

[@MijnWolden]

And to think my husband has an entire sweater in that yarn and he only wears it around the house 😅

[@faisalreyaz1481]

Loved the video, though not of any use to me , but your way of explaining is so elegant 😃😃😃..

[@MijnWolden]

Elegant is the last adjective I would personally use to describe my way of explaining, but thank you very much for the compliment!

[@faisalreyaz1481]

@@MijnWolden "pleasure is all mine"...😊😊😊 #kashmir.

[@adoptedbythe1king]

I love it!!! And thank you for causing me to broaden my definition of elegance. I would also go with sophistication. Also heavy medal weaving should be a band name :-)

[@MijnWolden]

Haha I'd definitely listen to that band 😁

[@gingerft.honeybees4097]

I love your cardigan! Is it your own pattern?

[@MijnWolden]

It's the Bookish cardigan by Annie Lupton! You can find it here: www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/bookish-cardi I love this cardigan and the pattern, highly recommend it.

[@gingerft.honeybees4097]

@@MijnWolden Thnak you!

[@countbaldwiniv]

Do you sometimes forget wether the red thing just came from the up or the down position? 🤔

[@MijnWolden]

When Plain weaving I know that when my shuttle comes in from a specific direction (left or right) that corresponds with the up or down position of my heddle. But on every other technique it's sometimes tricky yes 😅
